So the Royals should have offered to Tex? They know exactly what they're doing for once, I wouldn't criticize them.
I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.
Ah, give me something clever to say here.
Then what is your ****ing problem then? Who cares if the Yankees sign the "best" free agents? It doesn't mean anything! There are still plenty of other free agents to help out any number of teams. That's my point! There is no problem!! Every single teams have the means to sign big name guys! They just can;t do it every single year like a few major market teams. If you make a mistake, be creative with some trades. Salary caps doesn't change anything. Players will still want to go to NY and Boston and the cheap owners will just get cheaper. Until someone points out a REAL problem, nothing is broken. This illusion that small market teams can't keep home grown players is just retarded!
is this number right? $185 million for 16 guys on the 40 man roster? Heard it on ESPN.

Christmas spending spree always in season for Yankees
According to Mike Lupica it's 189 million dollars for 15 players, NOT counting arbitration guys like Xavier Nady, Brian Bruney, and Melky Cabrera who could all get raises. Not to mention that he calculates that of the 88 million(really only 82 million after buyouts are paid), about 67 million has already been added on, plus A-rod gets a 5 million dollar raise, Cano gets a 3 million dollar raise....after they go through arbitration and sign a 5th starter, their payroll will probably be slightly higher than last year.
I mean, they ARE spending crazy money, it's just that they happen to be saving almost the same amount. I have no problem with them spending money...it's just that the next big money guy they sign, you can't tell me that they're affording it with the money coming off the books...
Haha, I feel like we were saying the same thing 3 days ago...
Maybe if we say it enough different times, eventually they'll HAVE to stop spending.
