    Yankees have seven World Series appearances and five championships the last 25 years, most of which occurring 15+ years ago. They haven't done much recently.

    Astros are miles ahead of the jankees. Closed the gap? Weve lapped them fools.

    I was making a joke about our dominance over them, but it fell flat.

    The Yankees have been cheating since 2017 with Video Cameras.
    The whole league can cheat as well as the Yankees.
