witesoxfan Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 #1 #2 #4 #7 #8 #12 #13 #16 Those are the playoff teams from last year. The one team who probably deserves the most credit on there is Cleveland - 93 wins on a payroll less than the left side of the Yankees infield makes. That is incredible. For as much as everyone hates them on this site...much kudos goes to the Indians from me. That's remarkable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Good to be the second-lowest team in payroll from the playoffs last year. Then of course, winning it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dodgers and Giants were in the same Division and had a higher payroll than the Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The giants weren't in cause Baroid didn't play a full season, and they sucked most of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
