[QUOTE="leatherneckjacket, post: 925887, member: 3849"] Yankees have not been to a world series since 2009. The Phillies have not won since 2008. Dodgers have won once since 1988. The Mets have not won the World series since 1986. Those are your four top spending teams last year. A decade ago the top four spending teams were the Yankees, Phillies, Red Sox and Angels. Those four teams have combined two Championships in the last decade and only three World Series Appearances. If you look at the world series teams since 2012, there has been only two years where the highest paid team won the world series, only three years where the highest paid team even made the WS, and only one year where the highest paid team in each league both made the WS. In fact, that is the only year where both teams were both in the top 7 of spending. While spending does improve your chances of making and winning the WS, it is not the end all be all. The are plenty of examples of low payroll clubs outperforming the richer counterparts. In that regard, Moneyball is still alive and well. By year since 2012: 2012: #8 payroll beat #5 2013: #4 beat #11 2014: #7 beat #19 2015: #17 beat #20 2016: #6 beat #23 2017: #17 beat #1 2018: #1 beat #3 2019: #7 beat #8 2020: #1 beat #28 2021: #10 beat #5 2022: #8 beat #4 [/QUOTE]
