AL West right now has the best record in games played outside the division than any team in the AL, and 2nd in baseball to the NL West.

I can't believe the Yankees are still in first pace, they're terrible right now.

And we go back out on the road for 7 more this week lol. I'll be stunned if they got 4-3 this week. 2-5 seems like a lock

Tough to completely lose a 4 game lead in 2 weeks when everyone else is middling as well. 5 of the 7 worst records in the AL have come out of the AL East over that time frame.

anyone buying the paul george to the celtics rumors?

So do the Yankees sell next month? They may get a little something back from an NL team for Pineda (especially Pittsburgh where ex-Yankees go to flourish) and Brett Garnder, and to an even lesser extent Chase Headley.

This would free up room for Chance Adams, Dustin Fowler, and Tyler Wade.

I have no idea why they would sell. Just doesn't make sense. You don't sell when you have a chance to win the division. Unless the next month goes absolutely horrible like 7-19 over their next 26 games and are 6 GB out of 1st at the end of July.

Cashman has already said they won't break from the plan to make a run this year so becoming buyers is out, plus you can argue that if they make those trades as sellers they get better anyway.

I'm totally fine with getting rid of Headley but I would like to keep Gardy. If Pineda keeps pitching how he is currently then no harm in getting rid of him. 5.86 ERA in 5 starts this month.
