    Because the rules favor the rich clubs
    The same rich clubs that help subsidize the shitty clubs. Clubs who don't always put the money back into their team. 
    So....are you arguing that my opinion statement was incorrect, or agreeing and providing your opinion on why they are set up that way?

    Just curious.  My favorite team is one that I suspect makes money and could spend more. 
    Big markets favor/cause the rich clubs. Revenue sharing is in place for the overall health of the sport. I think I read somewhere last year that teams got 118 million each? (Not certain), but if each team is capped at less than 6 million for international signings, I would say that rule doesn't favor them.

    This team is going into the break with a minimum of a 6.5 game in the division, possibly the best record in the league and less than 10 home runs from judge and Stanton. This team is so good. Has to be an all in, World Series or bust season. 

    That said, looks like the pen could use a break.

    Seeing that it was in June you should find a time machine.

    They're playing the Rockies that weekend so I doubt it. The next week they're playing the Red Sox which is more likely.

    lol.  Who's got 5 free tickets for me?!  This is gonna cost me big bucks.  Two nights ago we went to a Trenton thunder game and sat 3 rows behind the dugout...I hate to break it to them but we aren't sitting that close at a yankees game! lol

    Wish they would have gotten one of the last two buuut, what a start to the season.

    16-4 in their last 20, 6.5 games up in the division, the best record in the AL, second best in the whole game and on 105 win pace at the break.  Not too shabby.

    Get a starter and go win the whole damn thing

    Good way to kick it off. Jumped the dodgers for the best record in baseball...
