There is always a chance with the Yankees to win it all. They have improved since last year so they have a good chance. If the Rocket decides to join them then they will definately have a good shot at the title. George is probably starting to get impatient about winning another championship so he will do whatever it takes to win.

Better than most. Last year they out scored all other teams by at least 60 runs. That was with Matsui and Sheffield on the DL most of the season. Even Cano was on the DL for a while and Damon played hurt. So they still have the best lineup if everyone stays healthy and their bullpen is finally one of the best in the league. It will depend on their rotation and how much Torre over uses the bullpen. The major question marks are: Could A-Rod produce in the playoffs and cut back errors in the field? Will Mussina and Pettitte be effective? Will Pavano be traded or show he could still run with the big dogs? Will Igawa transition well from Japan? Does Clemens return and pitch well in the AL? Will Philip Hughes make an impact? If the answer to at least 4 of these 6 questions are yes then the Yankees will win it all.

The Yankees have the best team money can buy, so do the Red Sox. The Yanks have a great shot to make the playoffs but injuries could kill their chances just like it did to the Sox last year. Right now the Yanks look good...so do my Sox.

The odds of the Yankees winning it all are 7:2. I think that they will win it this year.

They aren't. They do have a lot of money, but that doesn't matter. The Cardinals won it all last year, and they will win again. They have the talent. All the Yanks have are a bunch of idiots that just want to get paid. They could care less if they win, it's all about the paycheck. Barry Bonds belongs on the Yanks with all of the other no talent, high paid, wannabe's.

They have a good percent of winning every year because they have enough money to potentially buy a championship. The only problem is that it hasn't worked in a while.

I'll say 15.
The AL Central is too strong, someone from that division will make it to the ALCS.
