The gap between baseball's biggest spender and its smallest is the widest in pro sports. The Dodgers are paying $416.7M for their roster — about 5.2× more than the Marlins, who are running a $79.9M payroll. With no salary cap, ownership willingness to spend matters as much as scouting. The question is always whether that money translates to wins.
