In what’s been a disappointing Yankees season on the whole, earlier this week in Atlanta may have been the nadir. While it was always going to be hard to go on the road and take a series against the Braves, who are arguably the best team in baseball, the Yankees looked completely lifeless as they got swept and were shut out on five combined hits in back-to-back ballgames to end it. As a result, New York is under .500 this late in a season for the first time in 28 years and completely reeling as they return home to host their old enemy.
