Yeah at least now barring the Twins being swept by Cincy and the Yanks sweep the Marlins, we at least will get the home games if we face ya'll again.

But we control our own destiny for the 2/3 seed so I hope it doesnt come to it.

Twins are putting it together at the right time it appears-and all this with Nelson Cruz not playing. Still have an outside shot at the #1 seed.

Fully expect Cleveland to make quick work of us


Yeah, I saw this as their least favorable matchup, so of course that's who they draw.

Only sliver of a bright spot is Bieber is better on the road, and the Yanks have hit him in the past, but that was 2018-19 Beiber. 2020 Beiber appears to be a different animal.

At least we’ll have NFL football if they bow out early......oh wait

Do these guys leave their brains in NE when they leave Belichek?

Cuz this Judge fella ain't exactly living up to expectations.

Giants are a really poorly coached football team.

Amazing how bad the two teams sharing that stadium are run......I never thought I'd see the Giants sink as low as the Jets, but here we are.....

Bad luck and bad hiring. How Gettleman is still running the show is beyond me.

And here we go.

Yankees bringing that robust .677 road OPS to Cleveland to face the best pitcher in baseball.

You could say I'm not brimming with optimism.

I think it all depends on how Cole comes out game one. If he looks like the cole that we paid big bucks for and our offense starts clicking. We should be good. But personally I think in all these short best of 3 game series the outcome of game one has a huge impact. I wouldn’t count the Jays done yet since they got the Rays. There a pesky team

Really surprised they're not going with Ryu in game 1

If the Yankees can win tonight against Bieber, they should be good to win one of the next two. If they lose tonight I can't see them winning the next two.
