As we have seen from the Yankees in the past and the Mets and Cubs this year, spending a ton of money is useless if you don't have good money to go with it.

And of course the Yankees are only paying the management minimum wage? And don't give me the the B.S. about the lower payroll teams being able to compete consistently. The lower-tier teams generally get one or two turns at the playoffs every decade, and then get trounced by one of the bigger payrolls. The Yankees and Red Sox have a shot nearly every year. The reason for this is because it usually takes them ten years to build up their teams, and then they only have a window of a year or two before their star players get scopped up in FA by the larger clubs.
