I am sure Liverpool fans will be more than happy finishing out of the top 4 so long as the players they have are all on good deals.
Especially when you consider the amount of money that the Red Sox have compared to everyone not named the Yankees.

It was a bad year, they happen.... but their method has won 2 titles in 6 years, which is the best in the league in that span.
Lol, way to not respond to facts. You're advice is to throw money at any decent player and say it will work out, I showed you the new current way of thinking and why the Red Sox don't do this and you just come up with "they finished third this year" Oh well.
Here's news for you: the team in front of them heavily believes in sabremetrics as well, and are constructed of a plethora of top 3 selections that were based on sabremetrics....
They'll not spend li

Its great that Youkilis put up all those awesome numbers. I think the Yankees are more than happy with the guy who actually helped his team to win games in the play-offs and won a World Series ring.
The Sabathia-lackey deals were in different years but it isn't like the Red SOx only have so much money to spend in one off-season. It shows that they are not willing to spend the money needed to win and happy to throw money away on second tier guys when it is top guys like Sabathia, Lee etc. that actually win you games.

Way to be ignorant. Yeah, I'm sure the Yankees are happy with their 1B they gave 180m to. They should be.
I also think that the Red Sox are happier with a man that costs half the price, outproduces him and has won 2 world series rings.
Yeah, and that's worked for the Yankees once this decade, has not given much success to the Mets, Tigers, Mariners, Cubs or Dodgers.
The Yankees have 1 title this decade. The Red Sox have 2, so I'd say that the Sox' method has worked out better.
But yeah, I'm sure the Yankees love there 180m man that bats .148 in the playoffs and had 1 dinger and 2 RBIs.
You really are clueless, you keep spitting out repetitive garbage. Please take a second to read what's being posted, take a look to see what the cutting edge is in baseball and how well it works.
