Another day. Another Yankee win. Seven in a row. 13 of 17. Beating Chris Archer. Winning games after rain delays. And here we are. September 10th and the Yankees are a half game back of a fucking playoff spot and 3.5 games out of FIRST PLACE. Of all the dramatic things.
They say this team doesn't have a strength. I couldn't disagree more. Tanaka has low-key been the best pitcher in the American League this year. Showing up today and straight fucking outclassing Chris Archer and his weird hair/durag thing. Gary Sanchez has been the best player in baseball since he was inserted into the Yankee lineup in August. And the bullpen hasn't missed a beat. If anything, it's gotten better as a collective unit. Big Delly. Clippard. Warren. Tommy Layne. Blake Parker. Everybody contributing.
Tomorrow at 1 was supposed to be about football. About the Jets and Bengals. And now? It still kind of is. But if you aren't dedicating one television to the Yankees tomorrow than you're probably 90% of America so I don't blame you but if you're a Yankee fan than it makes sense.
WE EATIN.
