Yankees had lineups in June and July that had Guile, Phillips, Cairo, Green all playing at the same time. How they hung in there like that was really a shock.
Cano is the best 2nd baseman alive, and its not even close. The plays he makes in the field are amazing and the way he hits is like an old pro all star. He can slap the ball but already has mastered going to the opposite field which makes him deadly against rightys and leftys alike.
Red Sox have some young guns who need a bit more time to come around and will have a solid base for the future.
It will be kind of strange that both teams won't be in the playoffs together. This will be the first time since I don't even know when!! Does anyone know the last time that the Yanks and Sox both weren't in the postseason at the same time?
