Like Todd said, the only positive I see from all this is that at least the Yankees spend a lot of the money the organization makes (in whatever way) back into the ballclub. Around here, I see complaining about Uncle Drayton not spending the money he has. Obviously the Houston Astros don't make as much as the NYY, but there's some happy medium (not that Drayton doesn't spend any money, obviously) where the fans won't complain.
Or maybe that's just some eutopia-type land I just completely made up.
