2006 Post Season

(Photo by Newsday.com) - So we finally made it. 162 grueling regular season games are over and the Yankees have yet another opportunity to win a World Series championship.

Every post season is an exciting journey, but this time feels extra special.

There are so many captivating stories unfolding before our eyes.

Will Derek Jeter continue to add to his post season legend as perhaps the greatest clutch player of all time?

Will A-Rod finally show the world that he can perform well when it really counts?

Will Chien Ming Wang begin a string of reliable playoff performances? Or is he just another above average pitcher in the regular season and nothing special in the playoffs?

How will Gary Sheffield perform at first base?

Will Hideki Matsui make Yankees fans feel good about Cabrera returning to a bench player role?

Will Robinson Cano continue to prove that he is the best natural hitter on the Yankees?

Will Johnny Damon break out of his end-of-season slump and be the same player who killed Javier Vasquez's career as a Yankee?

Will Bobby Abreu continue his steady performance in the October spotlight?

Will assassins-for-hire, Jason Giambi, Mike Mussina, and Randy Johnson finally contribute to a ring for the Yankees?

So many good stories.

I love this game!
