2 Down, 1 to Go
I never bought the talk that the Yankees only chance to make the playoffs is to win the division. There's a lot of time left in the season and plenty of opportunities to make up ground against the Tigers and White Sox. This three-game set against Chicago is the perfect example. With a win today, the Yankees sweep the series and pull within 3 games of the Wild Card lead. Making up that ground over 73 games is realistic. Making up even 5 games is realistic.

Even better now that we only have 2.5 games to make up for the wild card and .5 for the division lead.
It looks like the Red Sox pitching is showing more leaks than the Yankees' - right now, that is. Subject to change any minute.

I hope this one goes through.
Only 2.5 games to make up now and .5 for the division lead. Not bad for this rag tag team.
Looks like the Red Sox pitching is showing more leaks, right now, than the Yankees starting pitching.
