Yankee Despisers, Wait Till October

With the Junkees pulling out another win thanks to A-Schmuck's home run on Thursday (of course, they'd never have A-Schmuck if there were a salary cap), it looks like it's going to be a long season, and it looks like we'll have to wait for October to see another team knock them off.

It was fun while it lasted, seeing the Junkees out of it and watching Baltimore fight off Boston, the White Sox and Twins going at in in the Central, and the Angels and Rangers in the West, but it looks like the Junkees are going to get back in it, which means we have to root for the Angels, White Sox, or whomever to knock them out of the ALDS.

Of course, they're still 4.5 games back in the AL East, and for this huge hot streak of theirs, they're still only five games over .500. Still, in trying to keep it real....

(Sigh.)
