Possibly Michigan-Ohio State, Auburn-Alabama are up thereQuestion:
Is the NY Yankees / Boston Red Sox rivalry the greatest in all of sports?

Yankees starting pitching is starting to come back down to earth, same with the bull penIs it too early to give the Yankees one of the two postseason byes? They're 62-26 with 74 games remaining. If they can manage to go 44-30 the rest of the way, Tampa would have to go 59-15 to pass them. Boston and Toronto would have to go 60-13. And Baltimore....yes the Orioles....don't laugh......they're going to be 45-44 after tonight.....would have to go 62-11. It's all possible. Highly unlikely but possible.
With the Orioles current 10 game win streak every team in the AL East is above .500Baltimore 21-14, 3rd best record in the A.L. East since June 1st. 3 games out of the wild card. Whew!!! That's a tough division!!!
The 5 in the rotation have started 87 of their 91 games. That's phenominal. Except.....Severino went down and won't throw for 2 weeks. Blessing in disguise? He's thrown 86 innings after throwing just 18 total in 2019 and 2020. But German is activated, so he should slide into Seve's spot for a while.Yankees starting pitching is starting to come back down to earth, same with the bull pen
I'm not so much worried about performance as I am health. They lost Green for the season earlier. Seve has a shoulder issue. King just went out for the year and that's a huge loss. Chapman can't locate his heater. They need Loaisiga to find his old form now that he's back. Abreu getting better would help. It's a great thing they had both health and performance over the first half. A big lead helps. But they need to find another reliever, either via trade or in the system.Yankees starting pitching is starting to come back down to earth, same with the bull pen
Yep Green pitched here at the University of Louisville, I thought he was on the verge of being really dominant but really didn't take that next step up like I thought he would.Saw King got hurt last night didn't hear he was out for the year, that hurts.I'm not so much worried about performance as I am health.

@Dieter.....yeah Soto gets traded. Where though? Toronto? Tampa? The Dodgers? The Mets?
