Position by Position Comparisons: New York Yankees vs. Baltimore Orioles

The New York Yankees sat at home and watched as three of their fellow AL East Division mates made the 2016 postseason. Boston won the division, Toronto took home the first Wild Card and a home playoff game and the team they faced off with is also the team the Yankees face off with in this comparisons post, the Baltimore Orioles. The Orioles were one-and-done in the 2016 postseason but I feel like they may put up more of a fight this afternoon against the Yankees. Stay tuned and keep reading.
