We try to avoid unnecessary Yankee exposure around here, but when it comes from someone telling us why the Yankees won’t win the World Series, then I’m all for it.
Are Yankees Doomed to Fail in Playoffs?
↵Such is the case with Jeff Pearlman’s latest blog post, wherein he explains that the Yankees lack what a team needs most to win it all: a kick-ass 1, 2 punch atop the rotation. Pearlman argues that essentially New York has CC Sabathia, who obviously qualifies as “kick-ass,” and then four guys who are, as Pearlman says, kinda “meh.”
↵So, which playoff-bound team has the best 1, 2? St. Louis with the Wainwright-Carpenter combo.
