00:00bare minimum, the Yankees have to make it to the World Series.
00:04The American League stinks.
00:07It is downright awful.
00:11This is one of those years where the Yankees, who, like the Knicks,
00:15they did something in the offseason that people questioned.
00:18They're running it back.
00:20I was one of them.
00:21You know, I wouldn't run it back.
00:22Look what happened last year.
00:24You know, you lost in the divisional round.
00:26Now you're going to run it back.
00:27This team has holes.
00:28This team has needs.
00:29This team constantly, in October, underperforms.
00:33So why would you run it back?
00:37That was a peculiar decision.
00:41So the Yankees kind of put themselves out there, much like the Knicks did,
00:45by what the Knicks are doing firing their coach,
00:48the Yankees with the running it back.
00:50And then also with the Knicks having the Eastern Conference not being that strong,
00:57and the Knicks being as good as anybody in the East going into the year.
01:02Obviously, same thing with the Yankees.
01:04And now the way things are shaping up over the first couple months,
01:07it's even more of a—and Tampa's falling apart here.
01:11They've been playing outs over their heads for months,
01:13and now they're, you know, four straight losses for Tampa,
01:17including one to the Yankees in walk-off fashion,
01:19which has now really tipped the scales back in the favor of the Yankees.
01:22And don't look now, they're only three back in the loss column.
01:25And they're red hot as they continue their domination over the Royals 14 straight.
01:34It's World Series or bust.
01:37You got to get there.
01:38And then once they get there, we have the conversation of,
01:42now it's time for Aaron Boone, for Aaron Judge,
01:45to take that next step and win the whole thing.
01:47But bare minimum, just like it was with the Knicks,
01:49got to get to the finals, got to get to the finals, got to get to the finals.
01:53No excuses.
