Rough series. Rockies managed to grind out every win, and our pitching was pretty good, too.

Probably any other team, and I'd be upset about getting sweeped to, but something about the Rockies doesn't make me mad. Maybe it's that I grew up rooting for them with Walker, Bichette, Galarraga, etc... or maybe it's just because their team is loaded with fantasy studs. Shrug.

g-bebe,

I strangely know what you mean. I mean, I was kinda bummed losing 2/3 to Colorado...but I was happy for them too. Hrm.

The Yankees are still going to win 90 games. Is that enough?

They need to play .598 baseball for the remainder of the season to finish with 90 wins.

Well, with Clemens and Hughes on the mound, Yanks = >70%, Wang = ~65%, and Mussina and Pettite = ~58%

That seems rather optimistic for a 21 year old pitcher with two career starts and a 45 year old pitcher who has started 1-2.

How many runs of support has Clemens got in his 2 losses? Like 3?

WC leaders (Detroit and Oakland unless Detroit moved ahead of Cleveland last night) are on pace to win 96 and 89 games respectively. Oakland is a perennial second half team, too. I think WC wins at least 93.

fwiw, "Postseason Odds, PECOTA version" has the Yankees at 28% to make the playoffs. (25% Wild Card, 3% chance division champ)
