different owners, are more worried about turning a profit. it is why teams like the Royals, and Rays, and Marlins will never be consistent winners.

The Dodgers are going to make over $300 million dollars this year from their TV contract. The Royals are going to make about $20 million. You don't need to be a math wizard to figure that one out. The Dodgers are directly giving some of that money back through revenue sharing aside from the payroll tax... although it's not THAT much. I don't know what the Royals get.... but the Twins get $1.5 million this year from the Dodgers TV contract, and they have a lower payroll than the Royals.
