Even less comparable when you look at what they spend in addition to the major league payroll. I don't think any team spends more than Boston on the draft. And the Yanks regularly are in the top few. I know the Cubs have signed a few guys over slot (Jeff S comes to mind) but not nearly like Boston or NY. That's a key difference. Those teams each get an extra 1st round talent each year by drafting a guy in the 5th round who requires first round money.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Even Samardizja comes with the caveat that the Cubs didn't have a 2nd, 3rd or 4th round pick that year, so his over slot money came out of the money that would have been spent on those picks.
I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.
