Over the past couple weeks, we here at Pinstripe Alley have been profiling the Yankees’ 27 World Series-winning teams as part of our Champions Series. The posts have been a nice reminder of how lucky we’ve been to root for this team, and what a deep and rich history the franchise has established. We’ve also even taken a look at some “Nearly Teams,” or seasons when the Yankees came close to adding to that 27, but came up short.
However, it’s important to stay grounded. Not every season in Yankees history was a great one.
