They don't build players they pay top dollar for players that are already developed. It has work for a number of years but they have had trouble recently. You should also remember that the players all get top dollar once they are developed so if a young player becomes really good he will leave unless you pay him. Its seems like baseball is all about the money and the Yankes gennerally do well because they have the money to buy players.
