He was even asked specifically that if the GM came to him and said that he couldn't move Perez but he can't be here, would he eat the $12 million - and Wilpon said absolutely. He was also asked if the budget is going to be a problem and he said no. When asked "So if the GM asked you for $20 million for Cliff Lee to better the team" Wilpon said he'd do it.

Naturally, I'll believe the full autonomy thing when I see it. But I hope he's telling the truth.
Boomer and Carton? If he went on Beningo and Evan, they'd be foaming.
