We have reached the All-Star break in Major League Baseball. Nothing worse than 4 days without a Yankees’ game. It is, however, a good time to take a look at the team and see where it is at and where it is heading the rest of the way. So let’s dive in and take a look at the Bronx Bombers as they hit the Mid-Summer Classic.

The New York Yankees ended April with a 18-13 record and stand in first place in the AL East, 3 games ahead of the Red Sox and Blue Jays. While the Yanks are off to a good start, it hasn’t been all Unicorns and Rainbows for the Bronx Bombers. There has been some bad to go along with some great stuff. Let’s look at where the team stands after 31 games.

It’s time for our first Update from Yankee Land of the season!! This one is going to be a little different than usual. Not having the opportunity to write for a while I missed a bunch of news from around the Yankees and MLB as a whole. Before I get into how the Yankees are doing to start the season, let’s talk about some of the big topics around the League and the team.

The New York Yankees finished last season with a 94-68 record to lead the American League. They made it all the way to the World Series for the 41^st time. Sadly, they fell to the Trolly Dodgers in five games. This year’s team looks to get back to the Fall Classic and finish the job. However, there have been some major changes to the roster since last they took the field in a game that mattered. Let’s break down everything that happened to the Bronx Bombers and talk about their chances of winning their 28^th World Series.

Just like last game, here are my running thoughts as I watched the New York Yankees take on the Trolly Dodgers from LA. Did you know that that’s where “Dodgers” comes from? They were originally the Brooklyn Trolly Dodgers. Well, now you know. Anyways, here we go…

The New York Yankees have clinched a spot in the 2024 MLB playoffs. As of this writing they have a 5-game lead on Baltimore for the division and their magic number is down to 6. I am still not sure winning the division is the way to go (taking a week off is a killer in baseball) but, even if they were to be swept by the O’s next week, they pretty much have the division rapped up. So, let’s head down to Yankee land and see how we got here.

It has been exactly a month so we are long over due for a trip down to Yankee Land. A lot has happened since last we visited, some good, some bad. We will get into all of it but first I would like to personally thank the Baltimore Orioles for not running away with the division. I can’t say for sure they did not bet on the Yankees to win the East. As we stand of this writing the Yankees and Baltimore are tied atop the AL East. The Yankees are 6 games ahead of the Red Sox who are the first team out of the playoffs. Their Magic number to secure a playoff spot is down to 35. Let’s get into how we got here.

With today’s off day, I figured it was a great time to head on down to Yankee Land and catch up with the Bronx Bombers. Since we last checked in, the Yankees have gone 12-4 and just had a 4-game winning streak snapped by the San Diego Padres. They now stand at 37-18 and are tied with Baltimore for 1^st place in the AL East (remember only thing that matters is the loss column). The team has been rolling of late. So lets dive in.
