MILWAUKEE — This is evolving into a playoffs out of Central casting for the Yankees.
They have yet to play a game, yet it hardly could be going better. Their October nemesis is out, and what is forming in their way is the division — the AL Central — that they all but have the deed on; such is their ownership (especially recently at this time of year).
Yeah, we know: The short-series format makes October a crapshoot. But at some point that has to become just a crap excuse, particularly this year if the Yankees do not, at minimum, go to their first World Series since 2009.
