It could be. They are pitted against the 1930 Yankees who actually had a worse regular season, but who dominated their round #1 matchup. It should be an interesting matchup between two different Yankees eras. Teams have a way of changing performance wise from round to round in a tourney format like this, so I am far from writing off the '57 Yanks. Mickey did very little in Round #1, so that is a spot they could improve on and look a heck of a lot better in Round #2.
