I have a plan for the Yankees

All right, Hank Steinbrenner, listen up. I don’t like you, and you don’t care who I am, but I have a plan that will make both of us happy. See, I’m going to help you guys get back to the World Series. The plan is simple. This year, and perhaps for the next few. you’re going to need to really suck. No really. Embrace the suck.
The Yankees had a revival in the late 90s, winning the World Series in 1996 and then not really looking back until, oh, say 2004. But in the interest of getting your team to suck (for the greater good, of course), I won’t bring that up. I will bring up the early 90’s though. Like 1990, when the Yankees were dead last in the AL East. They didn’t really improve for a few years, either. Do you know what this led to? This led to high draft picks, most notably, Derek Jeter, who was picked 6th overall in 1992. If you had been a decent team, you would have been drafting later, and Jeter could have ended up with the Giants, the next team picking. Can you imagine Jeter developing as a player with a character like Barry Bonds? The horror! The Giants drafted Calvin Murray instead. What if Jeter ended up with the next team to draft a short stop, the Mets? What if the Mets were the team with all of Jeter’s clutchiness and splendor? Can you imagine?
And it could have all happened that way, had you not sucked. But Jeter isn’t the only prospect you had. No sir. Other first round picks, Eric Milton and Brian Buchanan were packaged and traded to the Twins for Chuck Knoblauch. Really, when you boil it down, the only long tenured players with the Yankees that were signed via free agency were Mike Mussina and Jason Giambi. The rest were all trade acquisitions (because of your home grown talent) and, well, home grown talent.
I’ve made my case as well as I can think to. The Yankees need to go ahead and let this season get away from you and just continue to suck out loud. Build that farm system back up, maybe find another Derek Jeter. Then you can start trading your prospects for guys like Prince Fielder, who will be ready to leave Milwaukee by then. Cecil worked out great, right?
It was those early 90’s teams that laid the foundation for your run about 5 years later. Heck, you guys should probably give Mattingly a ring just for all that.
And yes, I do stand to benefit. I would love to laugh at Yankee misery for about 4-5 years.
