00:00The AL East is not over.
00:02Far from it.
00:04All it takes is the Rays to,
00:06and I know they're playing great baseball,
00:08but if they have one bad week
00:10and the Yankees play good baseball,
00:12they could get back in the race just like that.
00:15The Mariners stink.
00:16I told you that.
00:17The Blue Jays are not very good.
00:19They're coming up on the schedule.
00:20You know the Yankees are going to take care of the Orioles.
00:22They're coming up on the schedule.
00:23Then the Yankees get the Blue Jays again.
00:25Like I said, now you get two teams in a row,
00:28three series, four if you include Seattle,
00:30of under 500 teams.
00:31Let's fast forward to September.
00:33The Yankees get the Angels.
00:34They get the Twins.
00:36They get the Rockies.
00:38The schedule's advantageous for the Yankees,
00:40and Aaron Boone managed teams
00:42always find their way and get hot
00:45down the stretch in the final month or two.
00:47Plus, you're going to get reinforcements back.
00:50Plus, the pitching staff is championship level.
00:53Nothing is over.
00:55Look at where the Red Sox were.
00:57They stunk.
00:57Then they were great.
00:58Now they stink again.
00:59The Astros got off to a bad start.
01:01Now they're in first place.
01:02The Tigers sold off their best pitcher,
01:03and now they're only a couple games out of the division.
01:06The Dodgers said everybody wanted to crown
01:08after Scooble got traded.
01:09The Dodgers were struggling.
01:11Baseball this year has been insane.
01:14The Phillies got off to a bad start.
01:15Then they got hot.
01:18The Rays looked like Memorial Day weekend.
01:20They were going to run away with the division.
01:22They struggled after the Yankees beat them
01:24on that walk-off homer by Judge,
01:27and then all of a sudden the Yankees were in first place.
01:28So nothing is for certain here.
01:30In fact, I believe the AL East is going to come down
01:33to that last series or two.
01:35The Yankees have a four-game set with Tampa at home,
01:37second-to-last series before the year.
01:39Last year, everybody thought Toronto was going to run away with it.
01:41It came down to the final day.
01:43Nothing is over.
01:44Far from it.
