"Hating the Yankees like it's a religion since 94'" RIP Mike.
"It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
Wow. Baltimore is 11 1/2 games back this morning and they've still got 141 games left to play.
When do they throw in the towel and start shopping Machado?
And when do they fire Showalter? :-)
It's a mere moment in a man's life between the All-Star game and the Old Timer's game.

We need to enjoy this randomness as certainly there are people living in fear of dreaded regression. Also, if the window/cliff theory is right we really need to relish these moments as the Yankee’s window is arguably on the way. We should all take every opportunity to rub Yankee fan faces in this success, because they will not remember our magnanimity when they are on top.
