Taijuan Walker, a Philadelphia Phillies pitcher, blasted the team because he wasn't utilised during the playoffs. Walker played for the New York Mets for the past two seasons before committing to a four-year $72 million contract with Philadelphia this offseason.

According to various outlets, Walker, who was coming off two good seasons with the New York Mets, has agreed to a four-year, $72 million contract, while Strahm, a southpaw who pitched in Boston last season, has agreed to a two-year, $15 million contract.

In the fourth and a run-scoring single later in the seventh off former Yankee Adam Ottavino, Aaron Judge hit a 453-foot home run halfway up the bleachers for his major league-leading 48th homer.
