Thoughts on Yanks First Half?

Despite key injuries, duct tape bullpen, and decline of power hitters...Yanks have best record in the majors. Thoughts on how far they can go?

I think Nova should be sent down to the minors for more seasoning. Since he only pads his stats against the

Nationals, Angels, Orioles, A's, Braves, Rays who are all .500 and above.

Something about them seems like the worst best team...

They seem like a bounced in first round or 2nd round team; they are good but lack dominance. I know it's best record and they ARE a good team.

They remind me of the Braves without the pitching being good (the older Braves teams) like, really good teams with flaws that scared me exactly zero.

Surprising to be on top considering all the injuries. Assuming the pitching staff gets healthy for the playoffs, it still comes down to whether this lineup can manufacture runs against the better pitchers.
