i was holding out hope prior to the rays series but even before that series i had said it would take a miracle and that i doubted even the '98 yankees could make up 6 games in a month if 4 of their starting position players were on the dl and their #2 and #3 starters were having the worst years of their career
if we were healthy that would be one thing but there's no way we're going to beat the best 2 teams in the al in the head to head series that we'd need to win in order to have a chance
