So the second ranked team, lost to the fifth ranked team, i see. Yankees payroll: 309 million Dodgers: 241 million. Meanwhile, the Oakland A’s have 63 million in payroll. The League…is…a….joke. https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/payroll/_/year/2024/sort/cap_total2 w v
See that’s evidence that the team with the lower payroll can win, since the Dodgers beat the more expensive Yankees. That means the Oakland A’s are right there in the running, because they’re lower still.

Yeah I know…it’s one of the reasons I don’t follow baseball.
