Dolan doesn’t have the money to buy the Yankees. Yankees would sell for close to $4+ billion.

I could be wrong, but it seems like nowadays, franchises are rarely bought by single owners. It’s always groups that pool their money.

Cablevision can buy the Yankees, and rebrand the team’s network into “MSG? YES!”

Dolan doesn’t have the money to buy the Yankees.

Not necessarily Dolan. Just using him as an example of a rich, clueless and incompetent potential owner. The names Brown and Bidwell come to mind as well.

I really do not see the Steinbrenner’s selling that team at all.

$3-4billion is a lot of money for people who apparently aren’t as invested in the team as old Georgie was.

Imagine the Yankees as owned by James Dolan. Yikes.

Hope not. Imagine the Yankees as owned by James Dolan. Yikes.

Reds win the division in a walk.

I’ll take the Cardinals, thanks. Reds don’t score enough runs despite having one of the better hitting lineups in the league. The Reds also lack a true ace.

I have a feeling that if the rumored Steinbrenner sale comes to fruition, every big name on the roster will be cleared posthaste. Hence the comparison to the late-’60s Yankees.

I really do not see the Steinbrenner’s selling that team at all. It’s been debunked by every NY baseball writer as well.

The Yanks have the most profitable TV contract in the country, they can keep their payroll in the $160 mil range easily. The main issue is that young teams keep locking up their young stars. They’d have to wait until 2016 for Longoria, 2014 for Price, 2014 for Andrus and potentially 2018/2019 for Trout/Harper.

So Jeter, A-Rod, Sabathia, Cano, and Grandy will be gone by that point?

Pirates W/L record is not supported by -17 run differential; team flames out again.

/Fixed

The core of the current Yankees will have retired by then, replaced by Bryce Harper and a bunch of guys we’ve never heard of as the post-Steinbrenner era begins to resemble the late-’60s era.

So Jeter, A-Rod, Sabathia, Cano, and Grandy will be gone by that point? Jeter might retire at the end of his contract, or he’ll want to play so he can break Rose’s hit record.

That’s a beautiful bear

Umm…thank you?

Sorry, I’m not good with compliments.

I just want the Pirates to be good in like 2-3 years and then sweep the Yanks in the World Series

He’s owed $36M over the next 2 years. I would venture a guess that they eat up to $14M the first year and $10M the second. That’s a guess.

Eat 28M and the Tribe will take him.

How much of Soriano’s contract are the Cubs willing to eat to move him?

… which is nice.

“No donuts? Argh!!!”
“Hm. It’s raining again.”
