With the Yankees struggling to hold on to even a glimpse of the wild card I find myself saddened to think that my favorite men in pinstripes may not make it out of the regular season.

While I love the Yankees and still hold on to that vain hope that they will magically come back to claim the wild card. I also realize that the Yankees would have to win every one of the six remaining games while the Red Sox would have to lose.

That would make for one hell of an exciting end of the season. I’m thinking its not very likely, but then again I remember saying that about one of their games against the Rangers in 2006 after recovering from a nine-run deficit.

Don’t hang up those pinstripes yet.
