Interest Factoid

“The [Florida] Marlins have spent about $396 million on player salaries from 2000 through 2010, with 873 victories and a World Series title to show. The [New York] Mets have spent about $1.212 billion on salaries in those seasons, with 878 victories and no championships.


In other words, the Mets have spent about $816 million more than the Marlins to win five more games and one fewer title.”
