Major League Baseball teams cut payrolls by $47 million from opening day in 2008 to the first day of this season, according to an analysis by The Associated Press.

 

That was a drop of 1.7 percent, the first drop since 2004 and just the second since the 1994-95 strike.

A 2% drop is nothing, but I bet it isn't long before the players union starts crying about collusion somehow.

Also there's a small amount of inflation in there I believe, so it's a little higher than that in real dollars.
