    YANKEES should have HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE
    All sports do this and its just stupid.

    A division winner automatically gets home field advantage over a wild card team.

    Yankees had the 2nd best record in baseball. How many more games did they win than Texas ? 10 ? 15 ?

    Yankees played a far superior schedule, played in the division that had the 2 best records in baseball and 4 very good teams ( Red Sox and Jays )

    Rangers played in a high school division with a bunch of joke teams.

    Yankees should not be punished for playing in a far better division.

      Only 49% of teams with HOME field advantage make it to the world series.

        yea it probably should just come down to record in determining who gets home field advantage. but baseball decides ws home field advantage by playing an exhibition game so i wouldn't expect an intelligent solution from them....
