in 1995 or 1996 when the indians were good their payroll was 50 mil. yanks payroll was 85 mil. since that time the gap has grown huge. i dont know the significance just what it was.

oh ok.

what i meant was that during the yankees' most dominant period, they were not spending that much more than the other teams. whereas today they are waaay out ahead, and not even close to dominant.

I totally agree, in fact I lost most of my interest in the playoffs once the Yanks lost, because it's much more compelling to see them lose to whoever in the world series. I mean, the Angels? Who are they?
