I think with the equalize cities on it forces the Yankees to make some drastic changes to their roster to deal with less revenue. Therefore, they are forced to release or trade most of their star players and perhaps cut their scouting budget as well. It is the equivalent of being in salary cap hell in football. This creates a horrible team on the field as they adjust.
