No Real Point to the Post but...
The Philadelphia Phillies have a payroll of: $172,976,379 - MLB Best 60 Wins
The Pittsburgh Pirates have a payroll of: $45,047,000 - Leading the Central with 51 Wins
The Philadelphia Phillies are paying $127,929,379 more for their team than the Pittsburgh Pirates and have ONLY NINE more wins!
If the season ended today, the Phillies would be playing the Pirates in a Best of Five series. The Pirates have already defeated the Phillies 2 out of 3 games. Could the impossible happen? Can't wait for October...
