130 games - 2007 season

The New York Yankees have all but given up hope for the AL Eastern title as the Boston Red Sox lead by 8 1/2 games with 32 games left. The Red Sox have shown no signs of slowing down and have won the last two AL Championships. The Yankees instead are focusing on the wild card slot, which they currently lead by just 1/2 game, winning only 4 times in their last 10 games certainly didn't help........{ read more at the link below }

10 games - 2008

Two time All-Star Derek Jeter continued to assert himself as one of the premier sluggers in baseball at the start of 2008. Jeter, who bashed 39 homers in 2007, has crushed 4 bombs in his first 10 games of 2008. Young stud Todd Swindell added 3 homers and Rocco Baldelli hit .432 to lead the New York Yankees to a 6-4 start out of the gate..........{ read more at the link below }

Yes, I would like to see more updates in your Yankee dynasty. I like how you do ten games at a time rather than just one, as just one game in the regular season out of 162 doesn't mean all that much in the grand scheme of things. Besides, how many people doing a dynasty here have actually completed a season?

But when you do get to the playoffs, it would be nice to have full-game recaps there, where it really matters.

And enough of this Yankee decline. Let's get them back to being a powerhouse! (And get Posada out of the starting catchers' role, please.)

I hear ya on the recaps. I will do more for the playoffs, sorry I guess I'm just lazy. I like to get thru seasons and I forget it may be boring for you the reader.

The problem with Posada is he generally hits about 15-20 Hrs and I've yet to find a better option in free agency. Believe me, I'm looking. I'm more concerned with the pitching than anything else. I think the Yankees will be in need of a major rehaul in a few season, when Sheffield and the aging veterans decided to retire.

As for the guy who said the Yankees get worse every season, are you referring to the real Yankees? Because this team hasn't declined. I won 90 games in 2005, then 92 each of the next two seasons. Yes, this season I'm not fairing so well. I'd agree with you about the real Yankees declining. But don't give up on them yet, there playing fairly well lately considering a shaky rotation.

I've been playing OOTP lately, but I'm hoping to get back into MVP shortly. I generally go back and forth.
