Where we last left off, the Yankees had failed to win a World Series in the 1980s. That came despite the team taking full advantage of the relatively new creation of free agency. The team brought in a host of big names in the 80s, headlined by third baseman Mike Schmidt. However, none of them could lead the Yanks to their first title since 1971.
Now we go to the 1990s. Can the Yankees get back to the promised land, much as they did in real life, or will the simulation version of the franchise end up in the doldrums?
