I imagine part of the answer is "they don't trade them away for established major leaguers"

Since July 4, NYY have been the second best team in the AL with a 39-24 record (.619).

The trouble is, the best team has been the Tampa Bay Rays, at 42-19.

yeah but i feel like that's just a small slice of the pie. the rays, it seems to me anyways, develop pitchers much better. lotta guys come up the ranks in the yankee organization and dont pan out for one reason or another

[Balor3012]

Don't even care that it's the Orioles at least they put some runs up and weren't in a fight for once

[Dannyyankou]

All runs scored on home runs. I actually think that's an issue for this team.

Word. Glenn Otto and Jack Leiter are going to be a legit 1-2 punch at the top of the Rangers rotation in a couple of years.

Thank you Yankees.

[Balor3012]

That's as good a robbery as you'll see

[Balor3012]

And now an Oriole fouled a ball off his dick. This game is great already

[Balor3012]

Lmao!!!!!

[scrock25]

Is Chad Greene absolutely fucking serious?

[scrock25]

Also, I thought Gleyber Torres was a blue chip prospect? What is he doing throwing to first in that scenario?

[M. Steng]

Beautiful

[scrock25]

Sanchez getting robbed twice, we’ll throw that in there too.

Just not their year. Is what it is, can’t even get mad about it anymore you just expect shit like this to happen.

[Balor3012]

14 home runs given up by Green. That's incredible

[Dannyyankou]

1st and 2nd 0 out against the Orioles. If they don't at least tie it here, I'm ready to give up on the season.

[Balor3012]

Gotta be a game inning double play here right?

[Balor3012]

Season? Oh it's back on folks

[Dannyyankou]

Hey my threat worked

[Dannyyankou]

Say what you want about Gardner this season, he's come through in those moments

[Ascf33]

Never have I hated a Yankees team more than this team.

[Balor3012]

Can't just easily sweep a team. Wild pitches might define this year lmao

[scrock25]

[scrock25]

This team sucks so much dick. Has all year.

[mr. testaverde]

if they get into october, they're not going far.

Would rather them not even be there. They’re not on the same level as other playoff teams. They’re very clearly not a legit competitor for a WS. Every part of their game has a glaring weakness.

As frustrating as the team is, I can’t get behind this. They have their foot right outside the door to the postseason, they have to go for it.

[Dannyyankou]

Serious question, who was a worse team, the 2006 Cardinals or 2021 Yankees?

[M. Steng]

"They stink therefore I don't want them to succeed" is a hell of a take for a fan of a sports team

[Ascf33]

I think it's more, if they don't make the playoffs, there's a bigger excuse to clean house.
