No...well, maybe this Wednesday, ESPN can find room for them on the Wednesday Night game. No.
Well, what the heck?
Can someone please help me figure out why the Orioles - who are in first place - are not on ESPN, but the Yankees who are still trying to figure out who is playing second base, third base, right field, and left as well as in their bullpen and who are six games back are on both nights?
That's right...the Yankees who are three and a half games back in the Wild Card conversation are playing the division leading Kansas City Royals tonight and Detroit on Wednesday - another team with high hopes, but who are also not a playoff team should the season end today.
What is going on here? I get that ESPN is enamored with the Yankees and Red Sox, but neither team has done since the All Star Break. If MLB wants to maintain the few fans it has left, perhaps it should start talking about flexing games into time slots and avoiding the near constant rotation of Yankees, Red Sox, Cardinals, and Braves games and realize there are twenty-six other teams too.
