I'm sure it is not an original thought but as I watched the Yanks-Red Sox game last night it occurred to me that a core component of the Yankee's long term strategy is to use the scouting departments of the rest of baseball to spot talent. In a funny way the rest of baseball even develops talent for them. It makes a kind of sense: that overhead cost is compensated for by being able to put a popular, winning team on the field year after year (after year, after year as Steve Goodman would say in an opposite context).
