Look at this Yankee payroll. A bunch of All Stars. One of these players can account for half the payroll of certain other teams.
For example how exactly are the brewers suppose to compete? Brown, Kevin $ 15,714,286 Pitcher Cairo, Miguel $ 900,000 Second Baseman Clark, Tony $ 750,000 First Baseman Contreras, Jose $ 8,500,000 Pitcher Crosby , Bubba $ 301,400 Outfielder De Paula , Jorge $ 302,550 Pitcher Flaherty, John $ 775,000 Catcher Giambi, Jason $ 12,428,571 First Baseman Gordon, Tom $ 3,500,000 Pitcher Heredia, Felix $ 1,800,000 Pitcher Hernandez, Orlando $ 500,000 Pitcher Jeter, Derek $ 18,600,000 Shortstop Karsay, Steve $ 6,000,000 Pitcher Lee, Travis $ 2,000,000 First Baseman Lieber, Jon $ 2,700,000 Pitcher Lofton, Kenny $ 3,100,000 Outfielder Matsui, Hideki $ 7,000,000 Outfielder Mussina, Mike $ 16,000,000 Pitcher Osborne, Donovan $ 450,000 Pitcher Posada, Jorge $ 9,000,000 Catcher Quantrill, Paul $ 3,000,000 Pitcher Rivera, Mariano $ 10,890,000 Pitcher Rodriguez, Alex $ 22,000,000 Shortstop Sheffield, Gary $ 13,000,000 Outfielder Sierra, Ruben $ 1,000,000 Outfielder Vazquez, Javier $ 9,000,000 Pitcher White, Gabe $ 1,925,000 Pitcher Williams, Bernie $ 12,357,143 Outfielder Wilson, Enrique $ 700,000 Shortstop |

Money sure helps but it doesn't guarantee a playoff spot or world series appearance.
See the Dodgers and Orioles for references. I love this Florida Marlins $ 42,143,042 We beat the yanks last year with a lower payroll than that and we're still in 1st place this year after losing a couple key players (Pudge, Derek Lee,) and the Phillies who spent more than twice what we did on payroll are struggling to keep up. Its all about pitching, always has been and always will be

Its not the Yankees fault that the Brewers cut their payroll AFTER they moved into the new stadium that brought them lots of new revenue. Plus you have to factor in management acumen. No amount of money can replace picking the right guys in the draft, signing the right foreign prospects, and getting the right players via trades. The Brewers have made bad choices while the 3 small market teams I mentioned above have made good ones.

Yankees paid more or a little less in luxury tax alone than the last 3 teams to win the World Series (Marlins, Angels, Diamondbacks) whole payroll.

That is as close to a guarantee as a team can get. Money bought those trips to the series. |

I love this....
Texas Rangers $ 55,050,417 After 3 years finishing last, they trade A-Rod, and suddenly there in first place again! Go Rangers, even if they fall off later in the year!

Also read what Gator posted above about the yankees luxury tax VS the payrolls of the last 3 world series winners. In the 90's I was screaming about all this too but I the last labor deal was good and it'll take some time to create more parity.
