- Toronto 7 Yankees 2: At this rate, they will cancel “Yes’ Ultimate Road Trip” before August. At this rate, Roger Clemens might just give the money back and retire. Ok, maybe that won’t happen, but after another dreadful loss, it’s impossible to say what could happen next in Yankeeland. As per the recent norm, Monday’s loss was characterized by a complete lack of timely hitting. In three of the first four innings, the Yankees got a runner on second, only to strand him there.
While the offense couldn’t break through, Matt DeSalvo was struggling. DeSalvo, in what will probably be his last start in New York for awhile, allowed eight runners in four-plus innings of work. But, despite DeSalvo’s struggles, the Yankees only trailed 3-0 after six innings. That’s when Ron Villone came in and extinguished all hope. Villone was rocked for four runs in a 1/3 of an inning after giving up three hits and two walks.
The Yankees are now 13 ½ games back and are quickly becoming completely irrelevant. The Mets and Red Sox are streaking, how long before George Steinbrenner does something more than just issue a statement?

There is plenty of time. It is May and the Yanks play the Sox 1,000,000 times before the playoffs.
In other bad news, Philip Hughes turned his ankle. MRI to come.
it is all the press and fans fault. enough with the pressure already.
you guys are ridiculous.
go sox.
Time to fire Kevin Long, demote Donny Baseball back to full-time hitting coach.
it's all in their pitching. torre if you're reading this: PITCHING!
Very few teams have come back from this deficient after Memorial Day. One of the resent examples is the Houston Astros when they went to the World Series.
The Yankees will still win the Eastern division, and the world series this year. This losing thing is all just part of a plan.
The Yanks have had extraordinarily bad luck with their pitching injuries, and still have scored more runs than they've allowed. They've dug themselves a big hole, but they of all teams can climb out of it. And I'm not even a fan.
Can't blame the horrible play of the Yankees on injuries. As Steve Somers pointed out the Mets are only missing: one ace pitcher, the starting second baseman, the starting left fielder, the starting right fielder, and the backup right fielder. And they're struggling mightily with the second best record in baseball. Maybe once those guys all come back, they can bring down the Red Sox in the "Bragging Rights" Division.
