Joel and Ryan break down what's real and what's not real about this Yankees team from this past week after winning a series vs. Cubs and losing 2 out of 3 to the Rangers. How will the Yankees handle the closer role now that Clay Holmes has been demoted? Will the Yankees keep Netsor in the buillpen or can they juggle Schmidt & Gil back into the rotation? Are the Yankees trying to win every game with Alex Verdugo in the lineup everyday?
