teams invest lots of money in the players because they believe people are willing to pay the money to go watch them. the more money people are willing to shell out, the more teams have to invest in players.
Prices wouldnt be what they are though without the salaries being high. Yea people pay it because they have no choice if they want to see baseball games

no choice? from my house, i can get to NY Yankees, NY Mets, Toronto Blue Jays, Philly's, Orioles, Red Sox all within more or less the same distance. And if I want to go a little further, I can hit Cleveland, Pittsburgh, or Washington. I have lots of choices.

But you sound like a Yankees fan so I highly doubt you want to go any of those places
