Come October, could the Yankees and Braves be going home?
It’s possible. The Braves have been in every postseason since 1991, the Yankees since 1995. The Braves went 6-21 in June and are 13 games behind the Mets in the NL East. “In the past when we’ve come back, the teams haven’t been as good, but the Mets are going to be hard to beat,” says Braves All-Star outfielder Andruw Jones. The Yankees needed the break, manager Joe Torre says. They not only have to contend with the Red Sox and Blue Jays but also the AL Central, which has become the toughest division in baseball. With the White Sox or Tigers, the AL Central could have its first wild-card team since the three-division format started in 1994. Who has a better chance of returning to the World Series, the White Sox or Houston Astros? The White Sox. Even so, they could use another right-hander in the bullpen. Although they are happy with rookie Brian Anderson’s defense in center field, general manager Ken Williams could be looking at reacquiring Aaron Rowand from the Philadelphia Phillies.
