CBS New York: Count the New York Yankees among the teams that have not provided financial stability for every member of their minor league system. The team yesterday released more than forty minor league players. While few, if any, of these players will be severely missed from a player development standpoint, they nonetheless do not deserve to find themselves without the $400 a week stipend that they have been receiving from the team: there is currently no opportunity for them to latch onto another team (be it an affiliated or independent minor league squad), few jobs are available, and unemployment services are strained to the breaking point.
