Well!...I've seen some silly threads on this forum, but this may just take the cake!

I'm damn sure not going to argue with that one. I don't even like baseball.

Those numbers are a little bit wrong since they are the numbers for the beginning of the year and don't represent the Yankees acquisition of Bobby Abreu, the signing of Roger Clemens by the Astros, etc, etc. But the Marlins haven't made any huge moves this season, so their salary is still way below even the Devil Rays.

For quick comparison, the leading National League team salaries are the NYM @ $101 mil, LAD @ $98.5 mil, STL @ $88.9 mil, and Wild Card leading SD @ $69.9 mil. It is very possible that the $15 mil FLA Marlins end up playing these teams in October.
You have to look at the whole picture not just this year.
Two years ago there payroll was around $65 Million.
And to whoever said that they got talent from the first world series fire sale. The only player worth anything was D-Train.
