It’s a legitimate question.  Are the Yankees done this year?   Not only did big bad Joba Chamberlain go on the DL today, (rumor has it he originally hurt his shoulder trying to get extra oomph on a fastball he threw at Youk’s head so it would kill him) but the Devil Rays don’t show any signs of slowing down anytime soon and neither do the Red Sox.    And according to my math only 2 out of these 3 teams can make the playoffs.   Don’t get me wrong I still think the Devil Dogs will fade starting in mid to late August, but the Yankees are digging a ditch they may not be able to get out from.    And this leads into another question that I’ve been pondering for a long time.   Why does everybody universally say that Brian Cashman is a great GM?    Because I fucking guarantee that if you give me basically an unlimited payroll not only will my team win the Division every year, but we’ll win the World Series at least once every 3 years.    Cashman has spent more money on bums than anybody in the history of the game.    Yet whenever I hear anybody talk about him it’s always something to the effect “the Yankees won’t know how great Brian Cashman is until he’s gone”   Why?   I hope he stays in NY because he’s awful.   I mean for the past decade all he has done is assemble the most overpaid group of losers on the planet.       Yet people keep sucking his dick.    Anyway back to original question.  Do you think the Yankees will make the playoffs this year?
