It’s time to check back in as the playoffs have progressed to the LCS portion of the bracket, and as the Yankees have sat on the couch the rest of the AL East have been kind enough to join them. A vaunted year for the division ended up with a flop of a result, as the O’s, Rays, and Blue Jays all got swept out of the postseason. Houston lives on for now, but most of the Yankees’ rivals have been dealt with this October.
That’s all well and good, but we’re more interested in what the Yankees will do rather than what their opponents are doing currently.
