The New York Yankees of 2012 have begun the season performing their finest Jekyll-and-Hyde act. There have been strings of victories characterized by impressive power displays and fine pitching, and there have been inexplicable runs of losses featuring horrible hitting with runners in scoring position and short disappointing starts by their rotation.
Through it all, the Yankees remain in striking distance of the American League playoffs.

This article takes a look at who those players are and what they’ll need to do to ensure that the Bronx Bombers are once again playing in October.
