The American League won 8 of 14 interleague games Friday -- an off-day for the
AL, really, considering its overall domination -- and now has racked up 139
victories and just 85 defeats.
Tommy Lasorda said the other day that this is all cyclical, and that the
National League had a similar domination in the '60s and '70s. I don't think
it's that simple, or that random, and I don't think the situation is going to
change any time soon.
Here's why:
1. Baseball's two financial superpowers, the Red Sox and Yankees, both play in
the American League, and their rivalry -- and spending -- forces responses from
other AL teams. In almost every offseason in recent years, most of the best
free agents sign in the AL.
Look at the salary structure in baseball. The four highest-spending teams are
in the AL, and the 14 AL teams have spent a combined total of $1.168 billion in
salaries, an average of $83.4 million. The 16 NL teams, on the other hand, have
spent $1.158 billion, an average of $72 million. Sure, the AL teams might be
overzealous in their competitiveness, and there are deals like the Carl Pavano
signing that are basically lost cash. But an average difference of $11 million
is steep; the AL pays for talent, as B.J. Ryan and A.J. Burnett will tell you.
2. The low-budget teams in the AL have been more successful than their NL
counterparts, generally speaking, raising the overall quality of the league.
The Minnesota Twins rank 19th in payroll, overall, but have been a contender in
every year in this decade. We all know the track record of Billy Beane and the
Oakland Athletics. The Indians are having a bad year, but they have been very
competitive the last couple of seasons, despite ranking near the bottom in
total payroll.
3. The designated hitter. AL teams field nine-deep lineups -- they pay good
money for that extra hitter -- and generally, the design strategy within the
league is to wear down opposing starting pitchers. No NL team other than the
Mets really does that kind of thing, and some executives believe it really
affects the interleague play. "When an AL team plays in a NL park, they're
struggling with the tough decision of who to take out of the lineup -- David
Ortiz or Kevin Youkilis, for example," said one talent evaluator. "But when an
NL team plays in an AL park, they really have to stretch to find that extra
hitter. They're not going to spend to get that extra veteran hitter on their
roster, just for the sake of a few interleague games."
My own view is that the best three teams in the majors right now are all in the
AL -- the Tigers, White Sox and Red Sox -- and then you could make a case for
the Mets being fourth. After that, it's the Yankees, the Twins (with the
emergence of Francisco Liriano), Toronto, Oakland and Texas. And then St. Louis.
The difference between the leagues is staggering right now, and it's not going
to change until the Dodgers, the Cardinals or the Mets start spending very big
dollars and forcing the other NL teams to ante up.
現在懶的翻但大意就是在說說穿了 AL花比較多錢所以結果比較好，而且AL 的小市場球團
這幾年經營好的也比較多， 雖然AL 有時候會出現簽到假貨（ Carl Pavano = =b) 但基本
上鈔票壓死人的定律不變， 作者認為現在的十大強隊中只有兩隊是ＮＬ (Mets, Cards)
而且Mets大概頂多第四 Cards恐怕是第十.. 他認為除非 Mets, Cards, Dodgers
等等這些市場比較大的ＮＬ球團開始願意花大錢否則兩個聯盟間的差距只會越拉越大。
