Yankees is back to first place

Yes. When Yankees win tonight to combine the lost from Red Sox, our bombers are back to first place. Not to mention Rays also lose. Now, Yankees is 5 games ahead of Rays in the wild card standing.

Let's Go Yankees!

Yankees keep winning

Now, it's 9 in a row. It seems nothing can stop Yankees now even if Joba has to leave the game at the first inning after being hit by a line drive. As a long time baseball fan like most of us, you know Yankees won't win forever and will lose a game eventually. But, it doesn't mean we can't enjoy this winning streak as long as possible.

Yankees is getting healthier when the time goes on, but you know someone will get hurt(see:Damon) again. As long as we have a healthy pitching staff(rotation+bullpen), we will be fine. While Posada, Molina, Nady and Wang all on their way back, we find out more useful options from our minor league system.

2005 again?

Is this just me? Why do I have similar feeling I had back to 2005? I remember our Bombers looked old and struggled to score runs at the beginning of 2005 season while starting pitchers also were inconsistent. Of course, they have a slow start in 2005. On top of that, all teams in AL East got off slow starts except Orioles who was getting a hot start. Sound Similar, right?

Basically, our bombers were inconsistent the whole 2005 season and stormed back to grab AL East title. We also got tons of injuries back to 2005. I hope this won't be the trend this season. But, the difference between 2005 and 2008 is having a strong farm system now.

I am pretty satisfied at Yankees' record when you consider they only score 25 runs for 9 games which is average 2.8 runs per game. If Yankees somehow win tomorrow game and keep win enough games a little better than .500, we will be fine.
