2009 Salary Numbers

Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone knew where the Giants stand when it comes to salary numbers for the upcoming year. I thought I knew somewhat where the Giants were at, but have been seeing different articles posting anything from $70M to $100M.

Is there a good website to use that keeps up to date numbers with player salaries in MLB? I know MLB.com has last year's figures, but that seems pretty useless to me.

Thanks,

LP

I always go to Cot’s for my baseball salary inquiries.

I know that..

Someone who also blogs on another blog has a salary list. I’m not sure which malo seed that would be though.

In case you didn’t catch it, that was an oddly veiled reference to me.

Marco Polo did a quick and not so dirty add up on this thread and is estimating we’re at 88m

i was thinking about putting together a spreadsheet for the payroll this year…i got started, but was sorta too lazy to finish. if anybody would be willing to see it/lend a helping hand, it could be a great reference point. hit me up kids.

bitte, baby.

Another Math Mistake - Jess - The Rainman Must Be Sick As I Usually Only Make Spelling And Grammer Errors

Thanks For The Correction. However, The Dodgers spend $118M in 2008, $108M in 2007, and $98M in 2006 so while I didn’t mention it above I doubt if they feel limited at around $90M as the Giants have in the past.

not a scary team without ManRam

espicially in bullpen and pitching overall they look very weak.
