Is it any coincidence why NY and Boston have finished 1 & 2 in the AL east for such a long time (with a couple exceptions here and there)?No it isn't. The teams that pay out the most money have the best teams. It might not guarantee a title, but at the least, it provides you a better chance at it since your talent pool is always going to be better than 90% of the teams. If NY had the budget of Tampa... they would be not be making the playoffs, barring a miracle. The odds are stacked in our favor, even despite being in the same division.
