1st round, Yanks out, Dbacks out, A's out, Atlanta's out, and Seattle's not even in.

Can this really be happening? Baseball is becoming competitive again? 4 underdogs not spending a gazillion dollar a year fighting for the WS.
Damn, I still can't get over the shock.

To be accurate, the Giants' payroll is in the top 10.

And while the Diamondbacks were lambasted for using old guys to win a championship, the Giants are the oldest team in baseball.

Kinda coincidental the year of the near strike where players:

Didn't want contraction. Twins on the chopping block and who's still in it?

Other crappy low paid teams still in it?

I say at the highest levels of baseball it's a conspiracy.
