Different strokes, for different folks, I guess

As I've said earlier in the year, smoke and mirrors. People get on the Yankees for only winning with the long ball, but when you live and die by the 2 out hit, you are just as much, if not more vulnerable.

Francesca's rant the other day was right on point. This is the team I expected all season, so the first half was a shock, and a pleasant surprise, but this team played well over their heads. There are maybe 3 legit MLB level players in the everyday lineup, and that is it, and its not as if there is much more in the farm system. All of the top prospects are pitchers. I'm not really sure what to expect next season and beyond, I just don't see any hope.
