Yankees vs. Blue Jays@ New Yankee Stadium(four games)After taking two of three (should have swept) from the Mariners, and winning seven of their last eight the Yankees host the Blue Jays in a four-game series at the new stadium. Currently the Yankees are 45-33 and just three games behind the first place Red Sox. They're also two games ahead of Tampa in the Wild Card race.Besides yesterday's disappointing performance from CC Sabathia, a lot has gone right for the Yanks lately. Hopefully they can keep it up. There are less than two weeks until the all-star break and the Yankees need to play great baseball from hear on out. I know games in July are never must-wins, but it's very important that the Yankees go into the break on a high note.At 42-38 the Blue Jays are still in the mix. They trail the Red Sox by seven games in the division and the Yanks by four in the Wild Card. They've stumbled a bit lately and head into this series losers of five of their last seven.The go...

Well, He Was Prone To Have A Bad One
INSIDER: The Mariners snapped the Yanks 7-game winning streak with a 8-4 win tonight. ON THE MOUND:CC Sabathia had his worst start in over two months, and his shortest outing since Opening Day at Yankee Stadium all the way back on April 16th. In 5.2 innings the big left-hander allowed six runs on a season-high ten hits, walked three, struck out eight, and threw 70 of his 107 pitches...
A.J., Yanks Cruise Past Jays 4-2
ON THE MOUND: A.J. Burnett had another great start as he led the Yanks to a 4-2 win over the Blue Jays today in the Bronx. He had his A+ stuff once again today, spotting his 95-97 mph fastball, and curveball had excellent movement and he was throwing it for strikes. In seven innings Burnett allowed two runs on six hits, walked two, struck out seven, and threw 68 of his 112 pitches...
