    If Sevey were to get back from the DL and pitch like he did last season the Yankees would have a good 1,2,3..

    Unfortunate for the kid and the Yanks.

    Yanks are 2-2 so far in this 20 games/20 days stretch and now is not the time to thread water.
    This particular period is their first "big" test....time to cut the bullshit and step up.

    .....hold on a second, I need to put on my rose colored pinstriped glasses and grab my pom poms to finish my thought with a blind stupid comment.....okay, here goes....
    As we speak they're 5.5 games out of first place and that isn't alot of games. ⏳

    ...^^^
    I missed this yesterday. For the kind of money they make, even a rookies minimum wage salary, I'd sit parked on an Airport Taxi-way for a week, as long as they kept the cooler running, had water, food, maybe an open bar too...ntm- they got WiFi everything these days to occupy them, decent sleeping seats, media entertainment blitz, and even pretty flight attendants to talk too...

    5 games to these Yanx are more like 7-8 one week, five .5 the next. Not: neck and neck with Boston one week, then 5 out the next. So far: 2 Games over .500, and 8 games under .500. There's a reason the word phrase "over/under" is used. As long as any team is going to lose 6 and win 6, inconsistency will abound.

    Right now 5 games is not a walk in the 'everyday' park, its more like a hike from the bowels of Death Valley to the Peak of Mount Whitney. Least its looked that way thus far. A lucky west coast swing vs 2 very lousy Teams who suck even more-so... wish it weren't that way, but-
    'call a spade a spade'. The chemist will swing for the fences, that's what they payed him for, but, ... A cheats a cheat...nothing to glorify, regardless of every meaningless HR, lest it be a game winner, and even then nothing A-Roid does matters less a Win for the Team, .... his personal accolades are now just that, the gold hath begun to tarnish, "its better to burn out, than to fade away, my, my, hey hey"....

    Edward Nygma, its you, riddle solved...
