For the month of August 2010, the New York Yankees should win 18 games and lose 11 games – all things considered, and being reasonable about it.
How are they going to get that many wins? Simple: They have 16 home games in August plus four road games against the Royals. That’s like a dozen wins, right there. And, if they just go 5-4 in their other road games, then you have 17 wins. But, they’ll do better than 5-4. In fact, with an 18-win August, I expect the Yankees to pretty much lock up the Wild Card as they head into September.
Well, OK…
1-0 vs. Rays (CC vs. Sheilds)
2-1 vs. Jays
2-2 vs. Sox
1-1 vs. Rangers
2-2 vs. Royals
3-1 vs. Tigers
2-1 vs. Mariners
2-1 vs. Jays
1-2 vs. White Sox
2-0 vs. A’s
Survey Says! 18-11. Hey! We agree?!?
Where did I go wrong?
LOL.
