Yanks flash cash: McCann, Ellsbury are just the start

Brian McCann arrived at Yankee Stadium on Nov 19 and was greeted on the field by CC Sabathia and the pitcher's kids.

McCann toured the opulent clubhouse, then went to a hotel room arranged by the team at the $695-and-up Mandarin Oriental overlooking Central Park.

McCann merely had to take an elevator downstairs for a dinner with manager Joe Girardi and three other team executives at Porter House New York, a sleek steak restaurant in the Time Warner Center, filled with cherry wood floors and leather seating.
