It pretty much is over.
Look, sometimes injuries derail a season. It happens all the time to other teams - no reason why the Yankees have to be exempt. This kind of thing hasn't happened to the Yanikees for a long time, but the combination of the mass of injuries occurring during an easy part of the schedule is probably the death knell for this team. This team needed to have 40 wins by Memorial day to have a realistic chance at winning the division. Those 40 wins were very possible with the team at full strength. You think they're going to get to 40 wins by Memorial Day with the junk they're putting on the field right now? And that's with Bird, Voit and Sanchez as open questions in terms of their being good. What if all three just never put it together? Could by under .500 at Memorial Day. If that happens, the season is as dead as dead can be - doesn't matter how healthy they get or who they add. Just look at the schedule after May.
The lineup being put on the field is utter garbage right now. Can't win games when you can't score.
Bro, this has nothing to do with the entire season schedule for 30 teams. They were both out of town and are beginning a series against each other the next day. While that's not a big deal in itself, the fact that the following day is a Friday and they aren't playing is beyond silly.
Speaking of beyond silly.

...and now the 1-5 Cubs with the leaky pitching staff get to experience the hospitality of the Brewers for the weekend. Oog.

Happy with what I have to be happy with.
Red Sox are 2-6. Astros are 2-5. Cubs are 1-5. All very talented teams.
Their seasons are all clearly over. Pack it up, boys!

The Oh So Mighty Reds have now been shut out 3 games in a row, and 4 out of 7 this year! The race to mathematical elimination is on!
A Comfort Zone is not a Life Sentence
All the radioactivity floating in from Japan must be making the difference for Seattle.
I don't think the Red Sox or Astros have anything to worry about. If the Yankees are in this state by Memorial Day, that's when Ronmac and Facelift can get together for that candlelit dinner in Little Italy. I delight in any indignity suffered upon the Cubs because so much of their fanbase is INSUFFERABLE! And the Twins are off to a decent start. Rubber game of their series with Philly tomorrow. It's gonna be a pitching duel.

Why do Yankees fans wear players' jerseys with names on the back?

Severino is going for a second MRI. Not good.

I don't know how it is happening, but the "no name" Tigers are in first place in the Central at 7-3. The real test starts tomorrow against the Indians. I am sure it will all fall apart, but at least they have been fun to watch so far with all the young guys.
Chris Davis broke the record. Has to be so frustrating.

Has he even tried to lay down a bunt just to end it?
