There is no salary cap in baseball so the Yankees and Red Sox pretty much go wild.

Alex Rodriguez is getting paid $32,000,000 this year and CC Sabathia $25,000,000. Those two alone are getting paid more than 6 other teams entire payrolls.

Barca is worth every penny… Don’t know if baseball players are worth it though…

America’s professional sports teams have to adhere to a salary cap. However, some teams, like the Yankee’s, are rich enough to pay the overage fines.
