Budget Fun, part deux



Above is the payroll history of the entire AL for the past 8 seasons.

The highest average payroll for this period belongs to the Kansas City franchise - a little over $108 million. KC has a checkered past to be sure - 3 different teams in the Lone Star state, plus stops in Louisville and Tampa Bay. This high payroll has resulted in no post-season appearances.
Good luck eric!

The lowest average payroll belongs to the near-ubiquitous threester and his Seattle Pilot franchise (under $72 million). This cheapskate has produced 2 World Series championships.
But good news everyone - his payroll shot up this year so maybe we have a shot.

Hypnotoad out.
