Yanks @ Baltimore: the start of a Rally? 

Post#1 » by Dr. Detfink » Fri Sep 17, 2010 7:58 pm

I am going to say in the next seven days, the Yanks will make up their mind regarding the AL East. If by the end of the next 7 days, the Yanks are not in first place I see them throwing in the towel and taking the wild card.

No I don't see Boston overtaking them for the wild card.

Tonight AJ "Enter the Dragon" Burnett takes the mound and this whole team top to bottom could use a spark of some kind. Where it comes from is anyone's guest.

I'm a fan but I think they play .500 ball the rest of the way and squeak in.


Team showing a lot less heart than last year.

Great dramatic win...but a bit disturbing the Yanks couldn't punch out Burnett when they had him by the throat in the second inning. No matter, I will take the win.

nice win... great at bat by posada and what a bomb by A-rod... great win... after A-rod hit that ball, the way he looked off to the side was hilarious, like he knew it was gone when it contacted his bat...

Big Daddy got his first 20 game season...and the bats went to town on weak O's pitching. It'd be a perfect win except the Rays won as well.

Well it isn't as if the Orioles have some star-studded lineup, this is a more then winnable game. Hopefully Pettite can get a few decent starts in before the playoffs start.
