MLB agent gives Yankees owner everything: ‘He runs’ em like a Broadway show’

The New York Yankees had entered free agency heading to 2022 as one of the most needy and signing teams to finally break its title drought and get their first MLB championship since they won the World Series in 2009; However, the work stoppage arrived and a good part of the great free agents had signed elsewhere and before this, the fans of the Bronx Bombers sand he becomes more and more impatient with the management of his team in the face of his passivity.

And apparently it is not only the fans who are upset by how Hal Steinbrenner handles the Yankees, but also the representatives of the players, since an anonymous agent mentioned to The Athletic newspaper that many believe that the approach of the owner of the team has never been been earning, but doing business with the franchise, comparing it to a Broadway play.

Hal Steinbrenner runs the Yankees like a Broadway staging. They charge you the most expensive tickets of all and put the biggest stars on the field. With that said, the purpose of the show is to make as much profit as possible. If the play wins a Tonny Award for best show, the better.

The truth is that the Yankees have focused a lot in recent years, not so much on making the great media hires of previous years, although they have done big business like the signing of Gerrit Cole in 2019 or the change of the then MVP of the National League in 2017, Giancarlo Stanton.

I am a fan of the San Francisco Giants, a number one defender of Barry Bonds and a critic of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Fernando Tatis Jr., Juan Soto and Ronald Acuña are the future of baseball, Mike Trout is overrated, and the Astros deserved to be taken away from the World Series for cheating. Besides baseball, I also enjoy soccer, football, basketball, and just about any other game that includes a ball or a ball. I am also an amateur musician, penniless gamer and very nerdy.

I lived in Australia for a while; i survived giant spiders, tasmanian devils and fought a kangaroo and didn’t die trying.
