Some Loose Thoughts

Yesterday, the Yankees completed a sweep of the Boston Red Sox and clinched not only the AL East but home field advantage throughout the playoffs.  That and a quarter can get you a rub and tug in Thailand.  While you would rather have home field advantage than not, if the Yankees do not make the World Series it means as much as a bag of crap on your doorstep.  Everyone is saying the right things in the clubhouse but the only thing to do now is take the long division series, put Joba in the bullpen for the ALDS, set up the rotation and win.

MLB AL East, Derek Jeter, Red Sox, Yankees

Here are the current standings for the AL East:

Baltimore: 6 – 2
Toronto: 6 – 3
Tampa Bay: 4 – 4
NY Yankees: 4 – 4
Boston: 2 – 6

Now I am not here to put down the Red Sox for being last in the division, as there have only been 8/9 games and that would be ridiculous. But rather, are we in the bizarro MLB?

Goodbye… or is it badbye?
