The Yankees Suck... This Time For Real

If someone told you prior to the season that the Red Sox would be in first place at the mid-way mark and had no less than 5 all stars attending the All Star game in Detroit you would not have a complaint. Nor should you now; regardless of what Johnny from Burger King thinks this season has gone better than worse. Why has this season been so good? One reason... the Yankees suck. Now you can finally say it like you mean it, say it and not be embarrassed about sounding stupid. You can say it and have no fear that some dude from Princeton will list 10 reasons why the Yankees don't suck and the Red Sox do. Well, my friend, that dude from Princeton can no longer compose that list. In fact the Yankee line up on any given day will give you 5 reasons right off the bat why they do empirically suck and suck how.
Example: Sunday July 10 the 5-9 hitters in the hallowed Yankee line up.

Giambi, 1B	2	1	1	2	2	1	2	.278
Martinez, 1B	0	0	0	0	0	0	0	.223
Sierra, R, DH	3	0	1	2	1	2	2	.284
Flaherty, C	3	0	0	1	0	2	2	.164
Cabrera, CF	4	0	0	0	0	1	2	.231

No longer can the Yankees score runs like the Sox can, and the five through nine hitters in either line up prove that day in and day out. Joe Torre can no longer take 9 Yankees to the mid-summer classic, this year Torre can actually take zero since he is not the reigning World Series manager, another point of Gotham suckage, however only 3 pin-stippers actually earned their way to Detroit compared to what seems like a paltry 5 Red Sox. No other team, regardless of league, has 4 starters on the field at the start of the game other than the Red Sox.

Championships are won with pitching not offense you say? Randy Johnson and Mike Mussina can not be laughed off, but their +4 combined ERA can. Take away Johnson and Moose and you have nothing but Wang. Actually I just like putting Wang into any sentence regardless on how it is pronounced. After the Wang (6) the closer (Mo) leads the team with wins (4). Kevin Brown is a joke that needs me to do nothing in order to insult him, and Carl Pavano does his best job of being predominantly incognito as he ends up on the DL. Nothing here can and will change.

So there you have it, the Yankees suck, and they can't actually do anything about it. Short of Cashman some how bolstering this team with another front line starter prior to the trade dead line this Yankee team is done before they ever were even in first place.

Life is good.

The Yankees do in fact suck.
