Dear Yankees,
I enjoy watching your baseball games in October. You probably enjoy playing them and think of them as a birth rite.
As you look at your schedule this week, do not be fooled into thinking that these three games against the “Devil Rays” will be easy. They won’t be. The rays have cast aside the Devil, and now have the best record in baseball. No, really.
This is the most important series you’ve played all year and you must sweep. The clock is starting to run and it’s time to make up some games. The Rays have plenty of young pitching, including an all-star named Scott Kazmir (name sounds familiar, I can’t quite place it).
I’d like you guys to be there in October. Hopefully we can close out both stadiums with a Subway Series. If that can’t happen, maybe Joe Torre’s Dodgers will show up. Either way, you need to sweep.
