Just goes to show you that all the money in the world can’t buy you a championship if all your star players come up small in big situations.

“Just goes to show you that all the money in the world can’t buy you a championship if all your star players come up small in big situations.”

I would think that when you have 8 teams playing post season, out of 30 teams in MLB, you did something right.

Besides, the Yankees have won the most championships...
27 World Series Championships in 40 World Series appearances, and the most pennants... a record 40 American League pennants.

Not too shabby.

Actually, I believe A-Wod was originally acquired in a trade in exchange for another wiffer, Alphonse Soriano.

That said, the two Yankees who performed the worse in this series were A-Rod and Tex, two of their costliest players. The Yankees should have let A-Rod walk several years ago when they had a chance.

They have a better chance playing their own homegrown talent.
