The New York Yankees<\/u><\/a> have the second-highest payroll in MLB heading into the 2023 season and maybe that\u2019s why players shockingly have to pay for their own Wi-Fi on flights.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Yankees are the fourth most valuable sports franchise in the world, valued at $6 billion according to Forbes, but one report on Wednesday revealed that the Bronx Bombers put it on the players to pay for their own internet on flights.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Speaking with several players on the team and others throughout the league, Sports Illustrated reports that the Yankees are just one of two teams in MLB<\/u><\/a> that don\u2019t pick up the $9 tab on Delta flights.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The other team is the Cincinnati Reds,<\/u><\/a> who rank 26th in payroll with $70.6 million compared to the Yankees $267.9 million, per Spotrac.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s your fault,” center fielder Brett Gardner told Gerrit Cole when speaking to the outlet. “Your contract is too big, so they can\u2019t pay for the Wi-Fi.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cole, who signed a $324 million, nine-year contract in 2019, makes up 13.4% of the payroll total.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to the report, an in-flight Wi-Fi plan for one team costs around $40,000 annually and costs the players individually around $350.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I think most of our players can afford it,” general manager Brian Cashman told Sports Illustrated.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He\u2019s not wrong.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The smallest annual salary on the Yankees payroll is still $1.3 million with Aaron Judge<\/u><\/a> coming in on top, making up nearly 15% of the total payroll with his newly signed nine-year, $360 million deal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
