Yankees try to finish what boston couldn't.

[The Sleeper]

Money matters. Anaheim was a big market team. Oakland was an anamoly and never got out of the 1st round of the playoffs anyway. Plus they weren't able to keep Giambi cause of money, and they will probably lose their pitchers too once their contracts are over. I don't know how much Florida spent last year but I'm pretty sure you're aware of how they completely disgraced baseball by getting rid of all their players the year after they first won a title. That was the best example of a bought championship. Just cause the Yankess haven't won every year doesn't mean they don't have a big advantage over other teams before the season even starts based solely on the fact that they have more money.
