Bingo. Ultimately, that is what it was bound to come down to.
I remember wondering why the Yankees signed Swisher without making a big play for the real prize. Next thing I know, Tex is standing in front of the media saying that his wife really wanted to live in NY and that he had always wanted to play for the Yankees. Right.
Revisiting this issue serves no purpose. It's a done deal and the Sox need to find a way to build a team with enough talent to continue making s*** loads of money. The bottom line is R.O.I., not World Series titles.
