I'm sure if you were to calculate on and off the field, Jeter would be a wash or a slight loss. Lugo is almost a total loss. Once again..no comparison. You guys make money on Papelbon. You lose money on Lugo and Drew. Whatever. Who gives a shit? It's not our money anyways. Don't give me this crap about player salaries. Why do you care about what a bunch of millionaire players get from billionaire owners? Seriously? If you can't compete, you shouldn't be in the league.
