Barring devastating injury, this Yanks squad isn’t going .500 the rest of the way. Yes, the division is difficult, but the rest of the AL is soft as puppy poo. Yanks pen was human for once. We got great offense. We got reasonably good starting pitching. And after we lost the lead, Rizzo homered and the Yanks had the tying and go ahead runs on the bases when the final out was made. The difference this year is they don’t quit. There’s been a single game (Cortes vs Twins) that they’ve been out of it from the beginning. That’s it.
Here’s the craziest thing about the Yanks. They’ve got 5 starters that are playoff caliber starters. They’ve got a bridge that runs 3 deep and a closer that nobody can hit. When the POs roll around, they’re gonna be a tough out
