Food for thought.....
2010-Current Yankees have won the 2nd most games in all of baseball (Dodgers are tops). They have no Pennants or WS championships to show for it.
Reminds me A LOT of the 80's Yankees teams, good but just not good enough. Lots of bandaids to cover up the mistakes. Their championship window is closing fast. Lot of bad expiring contract in the next 4-7 years with players in their upper 30s.
2022 is it for this team to get it right. I hope that is realized in upper management.

At least they're talking now and exchanging proposals.
They already moved off some smaller issues.
I like that the players want to cut revenue sharing so the big market teams have more money to spend. I always hated that concept especially since a lot of mid West teams just pocket the money anyway and don't use it to improve their teams.

I'm sure that noise is coming from his agent trying to get more out of the Braves before he resigns with them.
But would I want him? Hell yeah, he is my top choice to fill the void at first base this off season.
But Hal is too fucking cheap and I'm beginning to suspect Randy Levine is whispering in his ear about saving money.
Hal is sick of giving Luxury tax to teams like Oakland and especially Tampa and then seeing them beat the Yankees with a quarter of the payroll.

Very interesting take on Hal and Levine. Very plausible the way they have operated in recent years. Hal is a cheap bastard when compared to George. Question,in your opinion, doesn't Cashman deserve the blame most because he is the one spending the money (wrongly) ?
It's an interesting discussion.
I never thought of that angle with Levine and the tax, really sharp BillyS!
