I would assume your referring to the salaries, right? If that's the case, i agree no baseball player should make the money that any of them do, but the bottom line is, if the owners are raking in tons of money because of the players, then why shouldn't they get a piece of the pie? It always annoys me when people talk shit about how the Yanks spend so much money. If you have the money to invest in your 'product', then why not? They pay the luxury tax, and its not their fault the lower market teams pocket it, and don't put it into their team like they should. About Damon, he is reportedly getting a 4 yr 52 mil. That's the same as Matsui, at that price, IMO the Red Sox could have easily afforded that. I think by Boston not resigning him will hurt them more than anyone would think. Damon getting on base made Manny and Ortiz alot better players. He is one of the best leadoff hitters in the game right now and to me 13 mil in this day and age is a bargain.
