You can't put a price tag on Yankee pluck -- well, actually, you can: Bud Shaw's Sunday Sports Spin

Only in New York can the best team money can buy be saluted as a gutty band of over-achievers. After all, CC Sabathia and Mark Teixeira aren't any more talented than any Pirate, Padre or Indians duo, right? Bud Shaw says that's one of baseball's most disingenuous spins.

Yankees not out of the World Series woods yet

Game 5: Cliff Lee beat AJ Burnett. No shock there. Game 6: I'm not sure how well Pettite can pitch on 3 days' rest, but there's no doubt the guy is a competitor.

World Series: Yankee Doodle Andy does it in style

Give Chase his props -- but Reggie's still tops

Let's get this straight. There's only one Mr. October.
