 the draft Kings Yankees pregame Bob Lorenz job clarity Jack Curry with you middle game of this three game series still a lot at stake for the Yankees but as Flash and I talked about last night Jack players don't want help they want to get the job done themselves right it's game 161 for the Yankees Bob and all season long whether you work for the Yankees or you're a player you're a fan you're staring at those standings and saying what do you have to do to get into the playoffs well the math is as simple as it gets for the Yankees today a first grader could figure this out one win and you've got a wildcard spot so for the Yankees it's all about get up stand up play nine solid innings today against the raise and eliminate that uncertainty you do not want to go into the final day of the season not knowing what your status is the Yankees have had a roller coaster ride all season they want that ride to continue but this portion of it I think they'd like to hop off today and be able to call themselves a wildcard team you know what Jack what players hate at this time of the year if Toronto does that if Boston does this if Seattle does that you don't even pay attention to any of those things right now it's win today so we don't have to worry about tomorrow and if the Yankees win today they take care of their business they can line things up if they don't get the job done today then all of a sudden things get dicey with your pitching with tomorrow's game so with everybody talking about all these different scenarios players keep it so simple this time of year you have nine innings maybe a few more today you got to find a way to win this game so you can relax a little bit tomorrow
