Yankee Stadium is a great experience for the Frum fan these days. Buy Delta or Field MVP seats for $80-120 each, free popcorn and Soda and $15 for a main dish and 2 sides of some really high quality Steak, Ribs or Lamp Chops.

Give me that over spending $250 at RC or Mike's any day. Even for a mediocre team like we have

They've got to get you to the ballpark somehow and the on-field product sure ain't doing the job.

Wow. What an at bat.

How do you have more than 4 balls in a single at bat or 3 swinging strikes ?

You don't. This app has glitches all the time but this is the worst I've seen.
I just managed to catch the screen shot before it got fixed, hence the

90/100 win season is a long way from 115. I don't think anyone (except diehard Cub fans) think they can keep up this pace.

I do. I'm a fantasy-first yankee fan but overall die hard obsessor of the game, specifically the statistical side. They have only used 5 starters all year and each has an ERA under 3 and 4 of them a sub 1 whip, I don't think any aspects of that stat will last, but to be saying that as we pass the 1/3rd mark is incredible. They have a +149 run differential right now, the next best is Boston at +70, so according to pythagorean w/l they have actually underperformed (should be 44-14). Time will tell but relative to their league, I definitely think they are in similar class to the 98 yanks (114) and 01 mariners (116).

I agree but in the Postseason when pitching is key, I think they are a toss-up against the Mets (and I'm a Yankees fan)

Truth is that baseball postseason is to an extent a tossup each year. Goal of current front office is to have sustained success and if you make postseason for 7 years straight then you have better chances to win some tossups. It also helps to have the playoff experience added each year.
