2014 will be the second year in a row the Yankees
have the hopes of another World Series Championship is smashed. After losing to
Baltimore Wednesday night there is officially no chance for the Yankees to make
a playoff run. Similarly the Red Sox will also not be making a run this year
even after coming off a World Series Championship just last year. Could these
unsuccessful seasons mark a change in the MLB? Maybe it does. If so will
smaller teams step up to the plate? Also, these seasons could finally prove the
point that money isn't everything when it comes to baseball. Teams are finally
recruiting younger and cheaper players who end up killing it in the league. The
Red Sox failure of Daisuke proves that statement that money isn't everything.
Underdog teams are finally starting to make noise in Major League
Baseball. Particularly the Orioles are making noise in the East. The Orioles
are usually one of the worst teams in the East but are beating the Yankees,
Tampa Bay, and the Red Sox this season. Orioles were also the first team in the
MLB to clinch a playoff berth. On Friday the 26th the Red Sox and Yankees will
finish off their seasons in a home series in Boston. Who will prove to be the
best of the worst?
