The Yankees, much like the Cardinals, Mets, Cubs, and probably a few others are scratching their heads right about now asking, “Wait a minute, this isn’t supposed to be happening.” And yet, when you look at the AL East standings, the Red Sox are in first place and the Bombers have a 2-8 record over their last ten games.
And much like when Hurricane Sandy hit the shores of New York City, all of a sudden everything is turned upside down. And even when the Yankees make a move to bring relief by dismissing Chris Carter from the team and calling up Tyler Austin, that turns into shambles as well as Austin sees only ten pitches today going 0-3 with two strikeouts.
