The New York Yankees have played well up to this point, but what are three reasons why they’ll win the 2017 World Series?
It’s been a while since the New York Yankees last won a World Series, 2009 to be exact, and they may finally have the team to win another in 2017. This has, historically, been an organization that played on baseball’s biggest stage every October, but they haven’t appeared in a World Series in just about 8 years.
That being said, I do believe that this New York baseball team has an opportunity to break that streak this season.
According to MLB’s official website, the Yankees currently hold the league’s record for most World Series Championships with 27. While that statistic may blow your mind, the fact that the St. Louis Cardinals who are in second place, only have 11 championships, should make your respect for New York skyrocket.

What else would you expect from an organization that has housed some of the greatest players in baseball history like Babe Ruth, Joe DiMaggio and Mickey Mantle? Needless to say, the Yankees have won a plethora of World Series titles because of their ability to put together a great roster and hire a solid coach to take them to the promised land.
While I don’t believe there are any Babe Ruth’s or Joe DiMaggio’s on this current Yankees’ team, I do believe they possess the pieces to make a run come October. With that being said, take a look at three reasons why the Yankees will win the 2017 World Series.
