It's been a miserable, wretched nine seasons in the Bronx. No World Series titles for the New York Yankees. No World Series appearances. The Yankees haven't finished in first place since 2012. That's six seasons in a row without a division title, which hasn't happened since the halcyon days of the rotation that featured Jeff Johnson, Tim Leary, Wade Taylor and Dave Eiland.
How bad has it been? The Orioles were the laughingstock of baseball after losing 115 games in 2018. The Orioles have won a division title more recently than the Yankees.
Sure, the Yankees have won three wild cards in recent seasons.
