The New York Yankees are hoping to avoid another "June Swoon" as they sit near the top of the MLB standings.

The Yankees are two games back in the loss column of the gritty Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East, yet their .610 winning percentage at 36-23 is the fifth-best mark in the league.

But second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. believes "when" is in fact now.

Chisholm appeared with Jimmy Fallon on Monday night during the Yanks' off day and said the Yankees will "for sure" win the World Series this season.

When Fallon asked what the team's "ultimate" goal was, Chisholm did not hesitate.

"I mean, to win a World Series. We’re in New York," Chisholm answered.

The Yankees have made the postseason in eight out of the last nine seasons, but have made just one Fall Classic that ended in embarrassing fashion. But this season seems a bit different from prior years.
