Will they do that?
There is a chance. According to FanGraphs, it’s not likely that the New York Yankees will reach the contemporary single-season record of 116 victories set by the Seattle Mariners in 2001 (originally set by the Chicago Cubs in 1906), but it is possible.

“If the predictions are to be believed, this is unlikely, but at least it is reasonable, as the team has reached this mark in 2.9% of simulations. The Yanks are currently running on a winning average of 116, but even if everything does not go well – hey, Joey Gallo And the Aroldis Chapman They have to do a lot to win games at such a fast pace.”
The Yankees have 80 games left. FanGraphs predicts New York (59-23) will eventually finish 103-59.

Keep in mind that hitting the record doesn’t guarantee a world title: the 2001 Mariners lost to the Yankees in the MLS Championship series.
However, the 2.9% chance is still a chance, and the Yankees have the opportunity to continue adding to the history books.
