I am busy at work putting the finishing touches on my next book about the Yankees (to be published by Artemesia Publishing in 2025).
I'll share more details in the coming weeks (and months), but one of the things I can share is that I am reseraching and creating lots of unique and fun charts and lists in the book.
I just made a chart of the most regular season wins in Yankees history. The Yankees teams with the most wins have usually won the World Series, except if the team won 103 games. If that happened, it didn't often turn out so well. When the Yankees win 103 regular season games, they don't often championships.
Take a look:
As we look ahead to the 2025 season, I hope the Yankees win many games, I hope they win often, but I hope they don't end with 103 wins. That usually doesn't end up so well...
Seems like there's little risk of that happening in 2025.
Not much happening in Yankee Land at the moment!
What a strange statistical anomaly. And they won 103 SIX times.
Looks like the key is to win more than 104!
a real concern, fersure,
considering that the Yankees so often win 100 or more games in a season
