Baseball Team Salary Vs. Performance

From J-Walkblog:

Baseball season is over, but it's always interesting to compare team salaries with their performance. I created this scatter chart that plots each time according to its team salary and win percentage.

Interestingly, the World Series winner is smack dab in the middle in both categories.

  1. Just out of interest how much does the R2 value change if you remove the Yankees? They look to be a seriously leveraging point.
