The Luckiest Team on the Face of the Earth

How is this team 5-1 in the post-season?
Cano has a history of low baseball IQ, but why is it this year Posada is demonstrating premature dementia?  This should not be heat-of-the-moment brain cramp stuff, let alone two simultaneous ones.  SOMEBODY (or both) stand on the bag - it's neither a landmine, nor made of kryptonite!

Swisher must sit!
This whole postseason thing seems to be moving a bit too fast for him.  Blame Girardi all you want for the ALCS game 3 loss, but Swisher has been a one man rally-wrecking crew.  Remember way back when Arod used to expand his strike zone in the post-season?  The historically selective Swisher has done the same, except he lacks any other ability to bring to the table to even remotely make up for it.  Maicer Izturis can get a runner home from 3rd with less than two out, but Swisher consistently fails -- his slow, stiff swing belying his relaxed persona, or the facade of a relaxed persona.  In the rare instance that he is on the bases he seems to be making an effort to make Cano and Posada look good.
