RCAA Richie Sexson -1 Xavier Nady -1 Derek Jeter -5 Wilson Betemit -6 Robinson Cano -13 Jose Molina -16 Melky Cabrera -16 3 of your starters have a negative RCAA (4 if you want to count Molina), two of them in double digits (3 if you want to count Molina). Yanks need to get that squared away.

RCAA
Richie Sexson -1
Xavier Nady -1
Derek Jeter -5
Wilson Betemit -6
Robinson Cano -13
Jose Molina -16
Melky Cabrera -16

3 of your starters have a negative RCAA (4 if you want to count Molina), two of them in double digits (3 if you want to count Molina).

Yanks need to get that squared away.

People forget that we got some fortune during 1996-2003. Since then, the things that would usually go our way ( Blown save in ALCS 2004 to the Error from Alex in game 2 of 2005 ALDS to the momentum changing rain out of game 2 in the 2006 ALDS to the bugs in game 2 of the 2007 ALDS ) havent quite gone our way. Like Billy Beane said. Good teams make the playoffs and its a crap shoot to see who wins the Series.
