The New York Yankees are on an absolute warpath.
It doesn’t seem to matter what teams try.
The Yankees just seem to have the answer for it all.
They can beat you in so many ways.
They can crush home runs, pick up some clutch hits, and dominate you on the mound with their solid rotation and bullpen.
The team owns an MLB-best 27-9 win-loss record and have opened up a 5.5-game lead in the American League East over the Tampa Bay Rays.
The Yankees look like the team that you absolutely do not want to face when it comes time for October.
Yankees insider Max Goodman pointed out on Twitter that the team has won 20 of 23 games.

Party Like It’s 2009
Wow.
This team is something else.
They may just be the real deal this year and have the best shot of anybody to win the World Series.
It’s hard to believe it’s been since 2009, but that isn’t stopping them from chasing title No. 28.
This is a good team with a lot of depth and a lot of different ways it can beat you.
While there’s still time for things to change in the AL East, they already seem to have buried the Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles.
Even the Rays and the Toronto Blue Jays are going to have trouble pulling themselves out of the holes they’re in.
It’s like they’ve turned back the clock to 2009.
But time will tell if this team is the real deal.
They need to stay healthy of course, which has been a struggle in recent years.
But if they can do that and stay hot, then the AL East will be theirs for the taking.
