When they won in the late 90's they had a great core of guys that they brought up through the organization and now, as shown in my post, they still have the core of their team that came up through their system.
Sure they add the big names but so do a lot of teams. Having solid players that you develop makes a big difference.

You want to point me towards another team that can afford to sign the 3 biggest free agents of the off-season?
Scouting my ass. There's a core of a bunch of slightly above average players and a couple aging stars that came up through the yankee system. The actual difference makers on that team were bought.
