Yankees.com: Lapses, miscues costly in loss to Astros

Disclaimer: If you think this is the official website of the New York Yankees, you're an idiot. Go away.

As they attempt to muddle through the early portion of their schedule missing almost a dozen players with injuries, the Yankees are going to seem out of sync at times.

That may or may not explain the mental lapses and defensive miscues that cost them in their 6-3 loss to the Astros on Tuesday, but there is no denying there is still plenty of work to do—and plenty of time to do it—if this team intends to stay afloat while it waits for some of its injured players to heal.
