And yes, that is an oxymoron. Your prediction has been noted and I give you credit for going on a limb. Good stuff. And yes, that is an oxymoron.

Is that an oxymoron? The have a hard on for everything Easy Coast so bad, they can't walk around in public when the Yankees, Mets & Red Sox are playing. All I'm saying is my prediction is Yankees do not make playoffs. I think they finish 3rd, maybe 4th in that division. How's that for a prediction? ESPN Expert. Is that an oxymoron?

Meaning they can significantly decline and still be the best. I agree guys like Posada and even ARod won't match last year's production, but Cano, Damon, Abreu and Melky should improve. I saw this panel of 19 ESPN experts, and none picked NYY to win it all, so I guess I'm crazy in this assessment. I hope I'm wrong - I hate the Yankees. But I have a hard time seeing how this team and the BoSox aren't clearly the best two in baseball. The offense scored 76 runs more than any other team in baseball last year.

Offense is great, but I think Pettite & Mussina will stumble, fall and maybe even retire, leaving a rotation of Wang, Hughes, Kennedy, Joba & Igawa (or someone they get at deadline). Plus, the offense is old. It's good, but old. My opinion. Don't let the pinstripes cloud your judgement of a baseball team. Red Sox, Blue Jays and maybe even Rays are better teams in that division. 3 rookies in a rotation does not a playoff team make.

Is it the league's best offense that turns you off? Or the awesome back-end of the bullpen? Wang, Hughes, Pettite, Kennedy and later Joba isn't the worst rotation either. Why do you say that?

If you think Yankees are winning the Series, much less making the playoffs, you are high. Honestly, they might finish fourth, most likely third in the East. WOW.
