Taps For Pinstripes
This has been pretty painfully obvious for some time now, but I might as well say it publically, so that I can allow the other stages of grief, i.e. acceptance, set in.
After a twelve-year streak of making the playoffs that included winning the division in ten of those years, making the World Series six times and winning it all four times, the New York Yankees are toast in 2007.
Oh well, at least Derek Jeter, Jorge Posada and Alex Rodriguez made the All-Star Game. Shockingly, no one from the pitching staff -- including Mariano Rivera -- did.
Maybe my colleague Joel Sherman has the right idea.
