The rest of Major league baseball is the Yank-mees farm system...

MLB Desperately needs a Salary Cap.

And I realize it will also impact the Sox.......but it would be nice to see some of the smaller markets compete for a change

Stop yer crying. They are trading for him, nothing against the rules there. They are giving up good prospects not a bucket of balls.

but they will be paying him a pretty penny, like only they can, when the time comes. Didn't say they were breaking any rules. It is my job to whine.

Wouldn't just some year you like to see all the teams have the same amount of $$$ to spend and see how you measure up to them? Probably not you are too spoiled. Oh oh I am starting a comm vs rec's argument.

While I think the Yanks would have liked to have him if he could be gotten without sacrificing a prospect I think they will move for him in the off season. With Andy Pettitte close to 40 he will need to be replaced and Lee is very close to CC. Texas is bankrupt so they will not be able to offer him in the way of a new contract so it is safe to assume he will be back on the market and heading towards the beautiful Bronx.

Well Dad i lived there for almost 19 years and I attended a grade school that was three blocks from the stadium. While it has had some hard times that have really dragged its reputation down there are sections of the Bronx today that are quite nice but you never hear about them because it does not fit with the image given out by the media.
