So are the Dodgers the only team smart enough to bypass that tax bracket? Or do they have enough hidden stash to afford to pay three upper echelon pitchers and not get penalized for it? Not to mention the rest of their star players, like Betts and Freeman and Hernandez.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Maybe, because I don’t get a bill from the Yankee's corporation, so I don’t worry about the luxury tax as much as you guys. I just want them to put a winning team together. Every year we talk about “the luxury tax” , but some teams out there don’t seem to care about how much money they spend on their team, as long as they bring in the fans and win lots of games. I’m just concerned they spend it oby PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
If they’re looking to sign infielders, why not resign Geo Urshela instead of some unknown guy?by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
At least he’s not in our division with a chip on his shoulder. Even though he had plenty of chances to prove himself in the Bronx.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Gonna miss him, he was a good all-round player, infielder and outfielder. Best of luck to him over there.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Merry Christmas to all my Yankee peeps! Hope you have a safe and wonderful New Years!by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
I hope the Yankee brass has taken note on how to handle “differed” contracts when seeking star players for their team. Which may allow them to obtain the players they want.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
What is it with these modern Japanese players, that they don’t want to play in New York? Ohtani and now Yamamoto.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
If they didn’t have that damn Stanton on the team, they could’ve afforded Yamamoto.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Do the Yankees know what the other offers will be so they can then make their best offer?by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Used to be when the Yankees wanted a player, they went out and got him, because the player wanted to play for a perennial playoff team, not just sit at home counting his money.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Seems like Hal and Cash are getting set to bow down to Cohen and his unlimited wallet. How about talking to your stockbrokers about backing a winning team again.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Some of the Yankee players need to take a lesson from Ohtani so the club could afford to get more players without worrying about the dumb luxury tax crap!by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Where are the Dodgers getting all this money ??by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Could be, hadn’t thought of that, not a bad idea.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Yeah, at least he can hold a spot till the Martian gets back on the field.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
From the Red Sux for 3 minor leaguers (Weissert, Fitts, and Judice).by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
Wether he was sitting at home with Cashman waiting till the last minute to talk to some free agents about signing with us.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
I’ve seen a couple of other managers there on the Hot Stove show and was just wondering.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
You got that right! George was all about winning.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
What changed between George Steinbrenner money, and Hal Steinbrenner money? When George thought a player(s) could help his team, he went out and got them. He didn’t think about the cost, he thought about the pennants and championships they could help attain. Back in his day, players wanted to join the Yankees. Nowadays they want to run the circuit before coming to the Yanks. I just hope that theyby PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
The only modern player worth that kind of money is a healthy Shohei Ohtani. Because you are in essence getting two players for price of one. A very talented pitcher, and a very talented power hitter rolled into one. I don’t think Soto is that kind of player.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
At least he won’t end up with the Sux, Rays, or Asstros.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
At least he won’t have to hire a moving company. Just take a different train.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
So far, the best closer there ever was.by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
“Joltin’ Joe”! Hope he’s back on speaking terms with Marilyn up there! Unless she’s residing way south!by PRYanksFan - TheYankeesBoard.com
