The Yankees had a brutal start to the 2019 season. After crushing the Orioles at home on opening day, they actually lost the next two games of that series. They continued to stumble over the next few days, and after 15-games had a 6-9 record.

We all know what happened after that. They swept a mini-series at home against Boston and absolutely took off. Despite the entire team getting injured, they essentially had the division wrapped up at the All-Star Break. They also never lost another game to Baltimore, finishing the season 17-2 vs the Os.

Overcoming a bad start will not be as simple this year.
