BOSTON -- You can talk about Joe Girardi's really bad two nights. You could go move by move, reliving every decision that went horribly wrong over a 24-hour period at Fenway Park that might be the death knell for the New York Yankees' 2016 playoff chances. But here is -- to borrow one of the manager's favorite's pet phrases -- the bottom line: The 2016 Yankees are not in the same weight class as the Boston Red Sox.
Perhaps the great Yankees selloff will change that one day, but that day is not today, and that is why there probably won't be a tomorrow come Oct.
