Bring on the Tribe

I know, I know, Yankee fans…we wanted our 10th straight division title, but I will take the Wild Card. At least we made it in, unlike our cross-town rivals (sorry I had to say it). Seeing all of the success that WC teams have had in recent years, I almost want it this way. Besides, we (the AL) have home field advantage in the World Series.

We were 6-0 during the regular season against the Tribe, but none of that matters anymore because we start fresh, both teams are playing well and now it’s WIN OR GO HOME!! Who would have thought that the Yankees would be in this position, but hey it is October and that is all the Yankees know…postseason baseball. Sure I have some concerns with the Rocket and the bullpen has been shaky as of late but Joe Torre will have everyone ready to go when the series with Cleveland starts. All we have left are 11 little victories. I have a feeling that in November we will be hosting the biggest parade NY has ever seen, but we still have a long way to go. Yankeescast will be here every step of the way providing a game by game recap. We also want to hear from YOU. E-mail us at hosts@yankeescast.com. Let us know your thoughts on this series and also your favorite playoff memories.
