Is it over Johnny?
Fans of Rambo will know about it being over.
30 games left. 10.5 out in the Al East and 7 in the wild card.
The Yankees HAD to take at least 2 out of 3 to stay in the race. Now they are fighting just to not get swept. Ugh.
The Yankees need to go 25-5 the rest of the way to clinch a wild card spot. I still have faith.
It has been a tough year of transition while still trying to compete.
Lots of contracts come off the books, new stadium and Girardi will have a year under his belt. Abreu, Giambi, Betemit, Marte, Britton, etc. need to be gone next year. No more aging veterans whose best days are behiond them. No more fillers on the roster. Infuse some youth onto the team.
A rotation of a healthy Wang, Joba, Pettite and/or Moose and a big free agent signing will be a good start.
The bullpen with Ramirez developing and last night behind him Veras looks to be in decent shape. I still have faith in Robertson.
Have Matsui Full time DH. Move Nady to RF. Platoon at 1B. Have Gardner or Damon play CF.
If you follow the Yankees minor league teams you know they have major talent on the way. Keep the faith.
