From the article: "At some point, if you don't want to worry about teams in minor markets, don't put teams in minor markets, or don't leave teams in minor markets if they're truly minor," Steinbrenner said. "Socialism, communism, whatever you want to call it, is never the answer." So I take it he would support moving some teams into Brooklyn, New Jersey, etc. Let the market decide, right Mr. Steinbrenner?

If it's Odorizzi as well then it seems more likely to me, and seems like the Brewers are giving up too much. But if it is true then it's done, and it's time to get excited for next season.

Not to waste bandwidth, but I also just wanted to add my thanks for that Posnanski article link. That guy is a really good sportswriter, and that article is no exception. Thanks again.
