I'm a Yankees fan and many most of their star players came thru the farm system is true. I don't think the Yankees organization tried to help either because they wanted to free up the 40+ million for other recruits.
I think the signing of A-Rod was a bust. He never played up to his contract and besides his lack of production, he was constantly injured. It doesn't help he pissed off the front office with his own news conferences when he would and wouldn't return. Cashman, the GM is probably glad to get out of that contract.
