The Yankees obviously have the best players, but if they are the best team still depends on if they can mesh.  I'd say them right now though, you can't go wrong saying so.

You've nailed it Jen.  The truth!!  All of these people who claim to disagree with you are just not being honest with themselves.  Of course they wish their teams were as successful as the Yankees.  What fan wouldn't?  The bottom line is that money or not the players still have to get the job done on the field.  Georgie is always talking about the Yankees not winning a world series in this century.  The fact is the Tigers haven't won still 1984.  So what is your point Georgie?  The Tigers are nothing more than a one hit wonder.  Big deal, you won a pennant.  You are all missing the point.  It's all about the legend of the Yankees and how it overshadows all of baseball.  No matter what the other teams do, it's still all about the Yankees and how your teams compare.  Some of you just have to make your hateful comments to relieve your frustration.  I think that's pitiful.  Instead of being mad at the Yankees what don't you turn to your own teams ownership and ask them why they don't put a winner on the field.  And don't give me this money crap.  All franchises have the money to buy anyone they want.  It's a matter of stepping up to the plate and doing it.  Obviously they don't have the guts.

Because Yankee fans, like Steinbrenner, have to find a scapegoat. They can't face reality, and that is that the Yankees this year are mediocre at best. So, what better scapegoat is there than the guy they "bought" to win a pennant last year and failed. So now his high salary and his reputation force the crying Yankee fans to bellow and cry foul!!

You hate the Yankees because you envy them.  You hate the fact that they have great success and your Angels and Dodgers don't.  Don't think for a moment that if your teams had the chance at that kind of success they wouldn't take it!  It's just a game.  Your question would have been better served if you just left out the hate part.  The answer has to do with the playoff structure.  Everyone knows that the regular season is almost meaningless.  All a team has to do is make the playoffs and at that point it becomes a crap shoot.  Whoever instituted the 5 games short series should have their head examined.  Every round should be the best of 7.  This years world series was a great example of the system going completely haywire.  The Cardinals (83-78) think that they are the "worlds best"!!  Are you kidding me??  Looks at Seattle a few years ago.  They won 116 games but got knocked out early.  Like it or not the Yankees are still the best team in baseball.  They are still the team everyone talks about more than any other.  There is nothing wrong with the Yankees but there is a great deal wrong with the playoff system.  There was a time when a team actually had to win the pennant out right in order to play in the world series.

Well, their infield has definately improved but starting pitching is a little shakey, it was real stupid of them to trade Arroyo. The bottom part of the order is a bit weak too. I don't think the self proclaimed idiots of 2004 can ever be topped.  By the way I am a die hard Yankees fan and boy are we happy to have Damon ;op

no they are the team that won the world series with the worst regular season record...jeter said it best ...."sometimes the best team doesn't always win".....the yankees have made the playoffs every year since 1995 and have won four since then no other team can make that claim...cardinals the best?....hardly

LET'S GO RED SOX!!!\n\nP.S. to the ignorant Yankee fans, I have a few points to settle.\n\n1) " Who's your papi? "  I believe that was fully answered in 2004.\n2)  The last time I checked, the Yuckees were 2.5 games out of 1st place behind... ah yes, THE RED SOX!

I'm a Mets fan, and being from NY all I hear is that the odds makers pick the Yankees EVERY year. Nothing new there. In the AL the Chisox could do it again. In the NL, who knows? My Mets are bound to improve (they can only go up!), so let's just watch and see. Play Ball!!

I'm so sick of Mets fans like this, especially considering their contention for the pennant this year. If this comment came up a few years ago, I would post that Mets fans only insult the Yankees because they have nothing to hope for. Now that you HAVE a contending team, you STILL put down the Yankees.\nTRY CHEERING FOR YOUR OWN TEAM RATHER THAN BOOING ANOTHER. YOU'RE NOT EVEN IN THE SAME DIVISION! Win your own first.

The reason why the Yankees has such a great team is because they have all the money.  mean all they have to do is go to another team ask for whoever and have alot of money almost all the teams need the money mean they will accept.\n                         GO CUBBIES!!!!!!!
