.....of course I can randomly choose 10 games, I just did. And stats work EXACTLY like that.
If the Yankees go 8 and 2--perfectly conceivable--and the BoSox play less than .500 for that stretch--also perfectly conceivable, then my example comes true. As a matter of fact, in the LAST 10 games, the Yankees are 7 and 3 and the Sox are 4 and 6; pretty close to my example.
It was only what, 3 weeks ago, that the Yankees trailed by 14 games. They cut the deficit in half in that period of time.
The Red Sox better pull their heads out of their nether regions and start playing decent ball, or they'll be worrying about the wild card instead of the NYY!
