I don't want to hear about the Yankees, like the evil empire Yankees in the mid-2000s.

Yeah, they had the top payroll.

This is every single offseason in any sort of situation where they might have the slightest bit of need.

If they could use a reliever, they'd go out and get the best reliever on the market.

They could use a corner outfielder.

It would be nice because that's the one part of the lineup where you can point to and go, they go get the best and give the most ridiculous contract you could possibly imagine giving this guy.

That's what they do, and they've done it three years running since they've got Shohei Otani in that contract.

Good for them.

Good for them.

They have advantages no other team has, but good for them.

The Yankees could write the check if they choose to.

The Mets, obviously, could write the check if they choose to.

At the end of the day, we shouldn't care about money, how much money a player gets, as long as you're willing to get another player and another player, and you don't have your self-imposed cap.

But all the Dodgers have done is what Mets fans, rightfully so, expected Steve Cohen to do.

And what I think the Yankees did do more than you want to accept from me today, but the New York Yankees for a good long period of time were the team that everybody said it's not fair because the Yankees want to overpay every great free agent that's available that they want and that they need, right?

So all the Dodgers have done is out Yankee the Yankees.

All the Dodgers have done is out Cohen the Coens.

Yep.

That's all they've done.

And we can yell and scream about it.
