tsteele316: "they had a $200 mil plus payroll last year, and lost some scratch because of it."
Let me get this straight: a team that's LOSING money gives away another $80 million in contracts this offseason?? Teams that lose money act like the Marlins do - not the Yankees. If the Yanks were truly losing money, then why not pick up some of A-Rod's deal and ship him to a team for 3 blue chip prospects? They'd save about $15 million a year, and they'd be able to command top flight prospects for him.
"now continue to purge your farm system"
Like who?? Anyone on the farm we've given up the last 2 seasons? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Frye?
HL: "are you getting the dotel that the astros had or the A's had?"
The Dotel deal is a no-risk, high-reward deal. He costs no money, and anything he gives you is a bonus. If its back to Astros form, then its a very, very big bonus.
