What a season! Guys going down left and right yet these Yanks showed their resilience. The division crown is back where it belongs after 7 long years, in the BRONX!

EE will be back this week. Sanchez soon after. Torres got good news on his hammy.
My bet is we use a postseason rotation of
1. Paxton
2. Tanaka
3. Severino
4. Happ or pen depending
We should have everyone back on the offense except for Andujar, Tauchman and Hicks. We might have to stick Sanchez at DH in the first series or have him relegated to backup C and PH duties. Romine has been nails since Gary went down.
The OF will be
LF- Stanton
CF- Gardner
RF- Judge
With Maybin as the 4th OFer/PR
The IF will be
C-Sanchez
C- Romine
1B- Voit
1B- EE
2B- Torres
SS- Gregorius
2B-Lemahieu
3B- Urshela
We might go 12 or 13 position players as 5th starters aren’t needed.
Wade is likely gonna make the team as he’s got versatility and speed. I do wonder if Gore gets carried as the 13th position player to take the needed SB
The 12-13 pitchers will start with
1. Paxton
2. Tanaka
3. Severino
4. Happ
5. Chapman
6. Ottavino
7. Britton
8. Kahnle
9. Green
The final 3-4 will consist of a combo of
Loaisiga
Sabathia
Cessa
Tarpley
Adams
Cortes
My bet is the top 3 make it and we carry Gore as the 25th man
With all the injuries, this is truly an amazing feat.
You got some guys back, but winning a ring will be even harder.
When you say it's gonna happen now
When exactly do you mean?
We shall see. The only pitcher in this postseason that actually scares me is Verlander. Verlander 1.0 was the Yanks bitch. Verlander 2.0 Houston edition owns us. We can hit Cole. We can work Greinke. We don’t hit Verlander
Never seen anything close to what the Yankees have accomplished so far this season, this should be some kind of a record on so many guys on the IL during the season (from the 25 man roster). If somebody would have mentioned this amount of injuries, I'd had predicted something in the neighborhood of 80 wins.
For me the MVP this season is Cashman, his best job so far as a Yankee GM, what a way to build depth in the roster, he practically struck gold in most of the trades and under the radar signings.
The most underrated GM in the league, I guess the "big wallet" bashing no longer applies to him.
I agree with Moon, the real test is about to start.
Congrats to Yankees fans for winning the division. I guess I have to concede my back to back to back to back prediction. LOLOriginally Posted by jacksonianmarch
But spare me the "back where it belongs" BS.
Also, enjoy the division crown, as it might be the only crown you guys will be wearing this year.
I have always thought Cashman was a great GM, and just needed to get out from under the grips of George and Levine.
So we’re locked into the 2 seed. We will be facing Minnesota. The Twins just lost Odorizzi. It’ll be a good series for sure, but if we bring our A game, they’re no match.
The batters didn't look very good against the Rays in this past series, I hope this is only a bump in the road and not the beginning of a longer slump, this is something we don't need 3 games away from the playoffs
Not worried right now. We are pretty much locked into the Twins. Their pitching stinks and Odorizzi might be out. We need our offense healthy and we should rake
Hal sucks
