The Bombers are showing that they are still 90-win teams, continuing their surge in the notorious AL EAST division. The Red Sox won the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-0 today, and the overrated Rays routed the young Marlins, 15-3. However, we Yanks also did great today behind our future ace Joba Chamberlain, ripping the Pittsburgh Pirates 10-0. While we are still a few games behind the Sox, the Bombers, riding the hot bat of A-Rod, are catching up on the Rays in the Wild Card standings. Hopefully we can still continue our surge and finally catch the Red Sox like we did in 2005.

The Yankees are expected to start Mike Mussina tomorrow against Bucs pitcher Paul Maholm. Dan Giese and recently-signed Sidney Ponson are getting starts against our crosstown friends the New York Mets, in a doubleheader. I don’t know what the results will be, but based on Giese’s last start, we’ll probably have to ride some good offense to win the game.
