Certainly the Yanks, Sox, Braves, Mets, and Dodgers are the freespending teams, but teams like the A's, Rays, Twins, Cardinals and others have really shown that growing talent gives you a good chance at competing. No doubt the high spending teams have the edge when it comes to a better chance of succeeding, but part of being a fan is cheering against them and hoping any other team wipes them out.
