Why are the cheap farm teams consider "successful" while the high payroll teams consider "evil"?

Wow i hope you know that the Tampa Bay made the Finals last season while the freaking Yankees and A-Rod stayed at home picking their noses. The Marlins are now 9-1 while Yankees are third in their division. So stop talking crap. All the Yankees know how to do is throw $80 millions away and then find out the player is a freaking bust.
