| 86 years ago the Red Sox won the World Series and now they've done it again. Perhaps more amazing than their victory is their salary. Yes, that's right, we've heard about the big bad Yankees, but who has the second highest salary in baseball? TEAM PAYROLL 1. NY Yankees 183,335,513 2. Boston 125,208,542 3. Anaheim 101,909,667 4. NY Mets 95,754,304 5. Philadelphia 93,219,167 6. Chicago Cubs 91,101,667 7. Los Angeles 89,694,343 8. Atlanta 88,507,788 9. San Francisco 82,019,166 10. St. Louis 81,008,517 11. Seattle 78,483,834 12. Houston 74,666,303 13. Arizona 70,204,984 14. Colorado 68,610,403 15. Chicago Sox 68,262,500 16. San Diego 63,689,503 17. Texas 59,845,973 18. Oakland 59,825,167 19.

Pittsburgh 40,227,929 28. Cleveland 34,569,300 29. Tampa Bay 28,706,667 30. Milwaukee 27,518,500 That's right, the Boston Red Sox have the second highest salary in baseball, not to mention a $23,290,888 cushion on the third highest salary in Anaheim. The team with the most money has the most championships while the the team with the second most cash trails the Marlins in championships in the past 10 years...interesting. |
