Years from now, when I'm an old man and my grand kids ask me about the legends of the New York Yankees, Robinson Cano's name will be among those names. I've never seen a sweeter swing in baseball and he does it with such ease, you really have to credit his father Jose Cano for some hard work with his son since he was a kid. Cano won the game for the Yankees yesterday...again. How about that?
With 2 outs in the 7th inning and Casey Janssen now on the mound in place of Ricky Romero, Cano was on a mission. What was that mission? drilling 2 runs. His double was a beautiful shot that went to the center field wall allowing Curtis Granderson and Alex Rodriguez to score. Next came up Nick Swisher, who's been on fire would nailed a single.

We've all stated how important the conversation of Curtis Granderson is in the MVP discussion these days, but no one should forget Robinson Cano. He's now batting .307, has 23 homers and 101 RBI's. Curtis Graderson, who's done everything right this year, is batting .273, has 38 home runs and 107 RBIs. 2 big time players, both Yankees and plenty of discussion.
Bartolo Colon does not look durable any more, he looked tired. Cause for concern? I'd say so. Yesterday he allowed 4 runs on 7 hits in 6 and 1/3 innings. Boone Logan was the guy who got the win in this one, not Colon. 
David Robertson was in yesterday as well and did not let up a run. What can you say about DRob, he is quickly emerging as a true Yankee stopper.
Final Score: Yankees 6 - Blue Jays 4
I love my Yankees right now. how about you?
