I've loved the Yankees since I was a little kid, going back to like 85-86ish, and aside from 04, the Redsox always have a decline in September.
I really think that this year is the worst I've seen, though. Veritek goes down for the season in August, other injuries plague them, a major one being Papplebon, it's just amazing how much they've crumbled here.
What do you people think? Are they a team with guts that can actually go anywhere, or was it just a total fluke a couple years ago?
