Just about three weeks ago, the Yankees had a seven-game lead in the AL East and were the only team in the division with a winning record.

At the time, with the second-place Rays still adjusting to life at Steinbrenner Field and at just .500, the Blue Jays a game under .500, the Red Sox losers of five straight, and the Orioles off to a ghastly start, it seemed like the Yankees might just waltz to another AL East title.

Since winning nine of 10 games, the Yankees have had a little 4-5 hiccup after dropping two in a row to the Red Sox to bring that lead down to 4 ½ games.
