The Yankees have won seven of their last 16 games. It’s lulls like these of late that have caused the Yankees to fall off a potentially historically good win pace, to a merely great win pace.
While the Yankees’ recent play definitely hasn’t been good, it has also overshadowed that this team has been excellent overall. Just going .500 the rest of the way would take them to 98 wins. If someone had offered that to me before the season, I would have taken it in a heartbeat.
Despite the win total the Yankees are going to finish with, plenty of people are going to come out of the regular season disappointed.
