Current Standings      Methodology      Visualization

Each point on the graph represents a team and a year over the last ten years. The higher above the yellow line a data point is, the better that team performed. so the 2000 Twins, at 69 and 93 with a $15.6 M salary, did as well as the 2007 Yankees, at 94 and 68 with a $195.2 M salary. Rollover a datapoint for a tooltip with more information on a given team for a given year, and click on that point to see all points for that team.
