It’s very easy to be discouraged about the 2021 Yankees. They sit in third place in the AL East, own a +1 run differential, and boast a mere 41 percent chance of making the playoffs. They’ve seen crushing losses to the Angels, Mets and Astros . but they also come out of the All-Star break winning six of their last eight games and staring down a four-game series with the Red Sox that could rip them back into the division race.
Coming into the season, the consensus opinion of the New York Yankees was that they were returning an excellent lineup and gambling on the starting pitching. They had Gerrit Cole and then six or seven different guys who could all play a role in the starting rotation, and the lineup would have to hit enough to buy the club time to set a rotation.
