ヤンキースは今年もワールドシリーズに優勝できない！

SI.comより抜粋。
Here is a message for George Steinbrenner, Derek Jeter, Brian Cashman and everyone else who has bought in to the Yankees culture that the season is a failure if New York does not win the World Series: The '90s are so over. The baseball world has changed so much from when the Yankees won four titles in five years that the Yankees' world-championship-or-bust mentality has become awkwardly outdated.

1. Better distribution of revenues and information. (Translation: better distribution of talent.)
2. The postseason is a crapshoot.
3. The best team doesn't win.
4. Franchise turnarounds are common.
5. Experience is overrated.

野球評論家の全くあてにならない理由ずけ。去年のタイガースの快進撃を予想した人は誰もいない。こういう記事が出ていることは、ヤンキースがワールド・チャンピオンに最も近いとみるべき。
