Well... the Yanks are now 63 - 35 after beating Cleveland tonight. Best record in baseball and should be well on their way to defend their title in this years playoffs.
I wanted Joba Chamberlain's role this year to be Rivera's set up man. I was pleased to see that come true, but he's totally stunk this year. Every darn time he comes in, he gives up 1, 2, 3 or even 4 runs it seems.
I'm disappointed that Matsui and Damon both left.... I thought bringing in Nick Johnson was a bad bad move. Now that he's on the disabled list, I'm actually happy to see him out of the line up. Don't miss him at all!
Only thing I'm a little worried about is possibly facing TEXAS in the 1st round. Now that they have Cliff Lee, the thought of going up against him twice in a 5 game series is scary.
GO YANKEES!
