Re: Payrolls
In Response To: Re: Payrolls ()

Bob,
Below is the link to the payroll information.

http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/salaries?team=nyy

I do not think that the difference between 1st & 2nd is the reason for ONE championship. I DO think that having the 1st or 2nd payroll year after year like the Yankess do is the reason for winning the World Series the last few years. They are able to maintain their group of winning players where other teams have to let them go. An interesting payroll is below:

29. Athletics $33,810,750 compared to the Yankees $109,791,893! Only $75,981,113 LESS than the Yankees...........

29th out of 30 & they very well could have been in the World Series & won it if not for the Yankees getting lucky! BUT, then the players want TOP dollar the next year & the team falls apart. Much like the Florida Marlins. That does not happen with the Yankees because old George will reach into his deep pockets & pay whatever it takes. The Yankees have the money & use it to buy Championships. It's not about who has the best farm system & developes their players the best anymore. It is whoever has the most money! The Dodgers have a LOT of money behind them. The trouble is they don't know how to use it! sad
