The Yankees' Opening Day payroll declined slightly for the second consecutive season to $195.2 million from $198.7 million last year and a record $205.9 million in 2005.

 

Boston was next at $143.5 million -- and that doesn't include the $51.1 million posting fee the Red Sox paid the Seibu Lions for pitcher Daisuke Matsuzaka. The Yankees' figure also didn't include the $26 million they sent to the Hanshin Tigers for pitcher Kei Igawa.

 

The New York Mets were third at $117.9 million, followed by the Chicago White Sox ($109.7 million), the Angels ($109.3 million), the Los Angeles Dodgers ($108.7 million) and the Mariners ($106.5 million).

I think that includes the total value of Thome and not what we are actually paying him and same for Vaz, so I think the numbers are slighly misleading. While our players make prolly $110 million total, we only pay around $100 million of it. I think, so correct me if I am wrong.

Because we now know officially who has made each team's 25 man roster.

 

Sorry, I am still confused. Why does the 2006 payroll matter when we are in the 2007 season? Even if we know our 2007 25 man roster, why do we care about the 2006 payroll?

 

Nevermind, someone changed the title to now state 2007. It originally stated 2006 and no where in the article did it mention the year.

 

How did the Cubs payroll only jump 3 million? They had an offseason spending spree and only jumped 3 million? The player in CF is making at least 3 million more than they CF from last year isn't he? Did Pierre make 11 million last year? Thier pitching staff is making a ton more, isn't it? I just don't get it.

I was a little confused as well. All I can think of right now is that Pierre came off the books, and Wood I thought had like a 10 million dollar/per year deal, and he isn't making anywhere close to that this year. However, thats the only two I can really think of that are actually off the books. Rusch couldn't have been making that much, was he?

That's only 21 players

 

Sorry, that was in response to RME's quote

Yeah, that is why I listed the "other players" making less than 415K since I didn't check who made the roster. If you just add 4 players making around that number, that would be an additional $1.660 for something around $96.225 paid to players, then you have to add the buyouts and other money to get to the exact figure.

Obviously Wood, Maddux and Pierre are the "big" subtractions.

 

You add in Soriano, Marquis and Lilly, it pretty much cancels that out, but not a huge difference.

The big news with the Cubs is their "down the road" allocations for contracts that are going to be dubious, at best.

 

Another reason for the "net balance" might be taking away Prior from the payroll.
