greatest hustle in mlb history, makes bonilla look like childs play

Bonilla was a great deal. It's only a bad deal because they were getting scammed by Madoff. I can't even blame them for falling for it because Madoff was the MJ of scammers.

The Yankees are 100% NOT going to sign Kyle Tucker.

If the Yankees want a guy, they go get him.
They don’t wait until January.

The current ownership and management are a bunch of cowards and morons. If Tucker was the guy, they’d have been aggressive about it.

And that goes for Bellinger, too.
Cashman is hoping Cody takes less money to remain in the Bronx the way Judge did.

You can quote me if I’m wrong but NYY won’t sign either of those guys.

What’s the point of being the richest franchise in the game if you never flex your wealth and power?

The Yankees are SUPPOSED to overpay for the good players.

The Athletics and Rays have to be creative.
The Yankees and Dodgers should just outbid everyone because they can.

Unfortunately Cashman and his idiot Hal would rather waste money on low tier players.

Look man.

If you’re buying a drill, just get the fukkin Milwaukee or Dewalt.

You don’t need to get cute buying 17 shytty screwdrivers from the dollar store. Yeah you get more. But you really don’t.

Hal will swear he doesn't (and from a team valuation he's dead wrong but from a "who got deeper pockets in general," Hal is poor by comparison)

Hal has plenty of money.

Here's the thing though.
By not spending on the best talent and failing to win, you are ceding ground to the Phillies and the Mets...as well as other teams around the league.

You don't win, you don't sign players that fans want to see.....people don't come to the stadium as much...they don't buy as much apparel and memorabilia...and you become less relevant.

Less relevance, means less prestige, and less prestige means a lower valuation. And a lower valuation means less money and 'round and 'round we go, Jack.
