—————
Even with Posada and Arod this team is NOT consistant seems to lack the desire and overhall during a long season and isn’t hungry???
Right now this doesn’t seem to be a team that can rally off 8 to 10 straight wins…than again who knows come July?
……Nor does this team “seem” to have the internal fortitude to overcome theirselves or an opponet who wants it more
be it a Sabathia, Beckett or Carmona
yours truely

When Andy starts to lose, the Yanks can forget about it.

Mediocre team

They’ll still be average when A-Rod comes back.

I don’t know what to say.

The Rays are good don’t forget. This could be their playoff year.

Young blood is coming.

This team would never win 8 or 10 in a row.

The Yanks won’t get by Cleveland or Boston.

They are a .500 team so far. The only way they will get better is to get healthy and improve their starting pitching. If they do not add a quality arm to the rotation, they will not make the playoffs.
