Heyman: Yanks can’t add payroll (for now)

ESPN puts the Yankees’ payroll at a cool $201,449,189. It is nearly $55 million more than the Mets who come in second on that illustrious salary list. Now, though, Heyman claims that the Yanks cannot add more payroll. Right now, this item jibes with what we heard about the Yanks’ spending in December: The team has reached its limit and cannot add any more. We’ll see if the same holds true when late July rolls around and the Yanks are one piece short of locking up a playoff spot.
