A story that appeared titled Yankees Need To Come To Grips With Jacoby Ellsbury drew this comment from Derrick Palsey:
I think most fans have already come to this conclusion….we just can’t do anything about it. If we could, trust me, we would. Most Yankee fans understand the business, as annoying as it may be. My biggest issue with the Yankees is their unyielding arrogance when it comes to player salaries. Bernie, Andy, Robby, even Jeter, they were all made to feel that being a Yankee is so much greater than being anywhere else, when management should have met them halfway at tge negotiating table instead of playing hardball with players who gave them plenty of wins.
