They have the biggest payroll in Major League Baseball, which stood at $228,995,945 entering the 2013 season, the most World Series championships in the history of the game with 27 and the highest luxury tax year-in and year-out. They also send players out with dazzling celebrations and honors, just like what happened with Mariano Rivera this year.
