Re: Yankees Finished '05 Season With A Record $207.2 Million Payroll [Reply to #1647]
1/9/06, 7:15pm
The Oakland A's had a 2005 payroll of approximately $55,869,262. That's not exactly a small-budget team, is it? They're not even close to the Yankee payroll, but who is? Overall, the A's are right up there with the medium-market teams in size and payroll. Of course, it helps in having a baseball genius like Billy Beane as their GM. If you click the article from this post, you'll see for yourself that the 2005 teams with the lowest budget are the Tampa Bay D-Rays ($26.6 mil.) and the Pittsburgh Pirates ($30.1 mil.).
