I could be wrong, but I seem to remember reading something about how Ruth was likely to be sold to the Yankees because the owners wanted the New York franchise to be more successful. Up through 1920 they were not very successful at all. Everyone knew the Babe would help New York, which would in turn help every franchise overall. Maybe trading Gehrig was, indeed, payback.
