Payroll Lessons

Don Surber looks at baseball payrolls and standings and extracts three lessons. I like this one:

Lesson No. 1 is: Spending a lot is not as big a factor as spending too little.

There are many different ways to win in baseball. Young quality players are cheaper than old quality players. That's how the Twins and Athletics keep winning, and the Indians and Blue Jays seem to be on that track as well.

Thanks for the link. Big Injun fan here. Love Shapiro and respect Terry Ryan and that GM at CWS.
Jhonny Peralta would be ROY if not for Omar's injury in 2003 when Jhonny was called up. Leads all SS in OPS -- 15th among all MLB players
It's like 1994 all over again for Tribe fans
