By

Summary
The Miami Marlins have MLB's smallest payroll at $80.4 million but are getting the best value in baseball, spending roughly $2 million per win — the lowest cost-per-win in the league. Despite their low payroll, the Marlins (37-38) are within striking distance of the NL's final wild-card spot, just two games behind the San Diego Padres. The article highlights how the team, led by president of baseball operations Peter Bendix (formerly of the Tampa Bay Rays), is outperforming expectations and stretching every dollar further than any other MLB team.
