Re: Yankees Offseason Moves

yeah the yankees have a great record of success but they also have triple the resources of most teams. so it is not quite so impressive. granted yankees management has done alot to maximize some of the revenue streams but give any owner and gm, the new york city market and the yanks history and they would be successful.
if baseball had completely revenue sharing( all tv and radio money shared equally - cant ever happen) i think the sport would be better like the nfl. and the yanks would not be the great dynasty of the late 90s to now.

i dont think that people realize that during the 96-00 period the yankees payroll was 1/2 as much as it is now and they were not out of hand. they greatly, greatly outperformed their payroll by dominating in that period.
