The Pirates, Nationals and Marlins are all terrible and all turn profits. Wins and losses are a part of it, but revenue sharing helps these guys out. It sucks that a team like the Marlins can have the lowest payroll and make money. Although my team is the Giants, I respect the Yankess because they try and win every year. They don't treat the game as a business, but as a chance to win the title each year. A lot of people say the Yankees bought their championships. Every team buys their teams, but some just spend more.
