Soriano was bought as a minor leaguer for like 1 million. The Yankees saw what otehr teams did not. I bet any team in the majors would have spent that money knowing what they do now.
He also played for many years in the Yankee farm system. I remember a couple of years back (2000 maybe) the Sox had the highest payroll in the majors to start the season. They spend a ton of money and have nothing to show for it. The Yankees make a profit every year and have to compete with another baseball team as well as other sports. What do the Sox have to compete with in Boston?
Point is, that Yankees have a better orginization and anyone could spend the money if they wanted to.
