And Al I will give you that, Hell I will give you that in regards to about 90% of all MLB players. But on a team that has money to burn, not saying its right, you always overspend in free agency, always.
I agree Major...its the devil of free agency to blow the salary structure out of wack for a player that if he plays up to 2011 fine, yes...big huge success...but if he doesn't...wow is that an albatross of a contract
And that is why the farm has to get better. People site the Rays and the Cards for example on how they can infuse talent from within, but nobody says how many of the other MLB teams are falling behind to. It's not only the Yankees.
As long as they spend and put a good product on the field and don't sit on their wallets like the friggin mets I am happy. Pretty much all the higher echelon free agents are overpaid so this is not that surprising. Don't think robbie is looking to work in obscurity in the northwest so that will get done and now due to other signings sooner rather than later before the music stops and theres no chairs left to sit in. Boras last seen laughing his balls off and sending note to cano how do you like novice jay z now baby
oh as a Yankee fan I love the fact my team goes out and tries to put the best team possible on the field. I just worry that in a couple of years we hear the same stuff we hear now with CC, Arod, Tex contracts. Ill take our team using their massive profits to put back into the team over a cheapskate ownership like Miami and Tampa to a lesser extent.
^^^had to edit my post and quote mrmel29's post...I was agreeing with him and not the post above mine.
