Things don't look promising for the non-hitting New York Yankees with Verlander coming up next but that's why they play the game.

If it was played on paper, the Yankees would win every year.

I've always said that money will not buy championships but you can guarantee you will make the playoffs. It's pretty frustrating to see them struggle at the plate.

There is a boatload of money leaving the shores of Swisherland and Grandersonland as they are invisible in the playoffs and I'm sure that will factor into their free agency contracts.

Go Yankees!!!!

Being a die-hard Yankee fan, it is obviously very hard to see what is happening. And although it looks VERY dim,
remember one thing - they are still:

THE NEW YORK YANKEES !


You never know. And I will root for them until the final out !!!!

My cousin, who plays poker in Vegas a lot, say "All you need is a Chip and a Chair to be in the game!"

Then again he's never played against Verlander.

Us members of The Villages New York Yankee Club are planning a Playoff watching get together for the 4PM Thursday game(Game 4),

Ain't we got confidence?

PM me if you'd like to join us. We have to have a headcount.

Also, we meet the 4th Monday of each month 7PM at Allamanda.

I would love to but i do not live there yet. Was supposed to up there this past week for a lifestyle visit but had to cancel. Will be coming up in January though. Currently reside near Ft. Lauderdale.

Thanks for the invite though. Will be watching. Maybe next year I will join you.

If the Yankee bats wake-up and find a way to beat Verlander, then CC starts game 4 and probably wins evening the series.

I just thought of looking at this game positively.

Go Yankees!!!!!

Read this article about Yanks vs Verlander this year. Tex says they like facing a familar pitcher, even a Cy Young winner, as opposed to someone new. Good perspective here.

Congrats to the Tigers final 8 to 1.

Stick a fork in us, were done. No excuses. The better team won.

Tigers go the World Series vs SF/Cards.

I agree. Just never expected my Yankees to go down without a fight!

Bats just never came alive.

Oh Well - #28 will have to wait.

You know that 11% of the US population is upset, right?

Well, being a Red Sox fan, I no longer have anyone to root for. Tigers, Cardinals, Giants...who cares?
