Yankee Wannabees

It's no secret to the smart baseball fan that the Boston Red Sox are ripping pages from the Yankee playbook. We all know this. It shouldn't come as a surprise. I was surfing the web today and came across a good column from SI's John Donovan. The title of the article is "Evil Empire Jr." and it draws comparisons to how the so-called "anti-Yankees" are operating much in the same fashion as their hated counterparts. Give it a read. It's well put together.
Right now the only difference between the Red Sox and the Yankees, besides the obvious domination of the Yankees over Boston throughout history, is their payroll. The Sox are no different in how they try to operate. The Yankees just do it better. Always have. Always will.
