NEW YORK - The struggling New York Yankees will be hit with a record luxury tax this year. Initial projections by the commissioner's office based on opening-day rosters have the Yankees owing $30,637,531, according to information obtained this week by The Associated Press.
The only other team projected to owe a tax is the World Series champion Boston Red Sox, who would pay $969,177.
Going into Wednesday night, the Yankees were just 5-9, tied with Tampa Bay for last place in the American League East.

Can't stand G. Steinbrenner, but he is a remarkable business man. Has no fear addressing the real issues of his organization up front and personnal. It took him a long time and many firings to strike the right balance (firing mgr's like Donald Trump), but he's well positioned now.
No better truth than"...What am I paying you guys all this money for!".
