For the 13th year in a row the Yankees will make the playoffs. And we know one fan out there isn’t too happy about it.

It was only a few months ago when everyone was writing the Yankees off. A-Rod was mashing the ball, but the rest of the team was in shambles. What happened after the break that caused this team to click? How did they all of a sudden start to gel?

“This is what it was about. It was a lot of unselfishness,” Torre said. “There were a lot of guys who played through some injuries, played through some fatigue. And, of course, Alex — we sort of rallied around him.”

The Yankees are now only one shy of the record set by the Atlanta Braves from 1991-2005 for most consecutive playoff appearances. That feat is truly phenomenal. In what other sport do you have a single team make a 13 or 14 year playoff streak. It just doesn’t happen anymore in the age of free agency. And this may be the last year the Yankees make the playoffs for awhile if the rumors of them duping Torre are true.
