I have not had too much to say about my beloved Yankees the first half of the season. To be honest they were playing really bad! But, they also stayed within striking distance. As they approached the All-Star break you could get a sense that they were getting geared up. Pitchers were catching their rhythm. Players were hitting. As of today they are only 3 and 1/2 games out of first place. Also, this year, nearly every division race is close and the National league west has all of its teams UNDER 500!!! There is great equality in the league -- and that makes it do-able for the Yanks to take the division and bring the play-offs back to Baseball's cathedral one last time! Wouldn't that be crazy -- last year in the stadium and the World Series victory......I LIKE DREAMING!
