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

"We could run a nice blog here if we didn't have all these members getting in the way."
In case you didn’t catch it, that was an oddly veiled reference to me.

By My Calculations The Giants Are Currently At $90M
Rotation $35.05M
Zito $18.5M
Johnson $8M
Lowry $4.5M
Cain $2.65M
Lincecum $1M (pre-arb but Cy Young Award Winner)
Sanchez $.4M
Bullpen $9.15M
Affledt $4M
Howry $2.75M
Taschner $.7M
Wilson $.5M
Romo $.4M
TBD $.4M
TBD $.4M
Outfield $27.65M
Rowand $12M
Winn $8.25M
Roberts $6.5M
Lewis $.5M
Schierholtz $.4M
Infield $17.1M
Renteria $9M
Molina $6.5M
Frandsen $.4M
Sandoval $.4M
Ishikawa $.4M
Velez $.4M
14 Remaining 40 Man Roster Players $1.05M
Unfortunately The Dodgers Are Now At Only $72M Thus Having $29M To Spend Just To Catch Us
This Is most likely enough money to sign Manny and Pettite too.
Here are the details:
Rotation $26.325M
Schmidt $14.625M
Kuroda $10M
Billingsley $.5M
Kershaw $.4M
Stults $.4M
Vargus $.4M
Bullpen $5.4M
Broxton $3M (1st year arb award)
Kuo $.4M
McDonald $.4M
Wade $.4M
Troncoso $.4M
TBD $.4M
TBD $.4M
Outfield $20.7M
Pierre $10M
Jones $5.1M ($12M Just Defered)
Either $4M (1st year arb award)
Repko $.7M (1st year arb award)
Kemp $.5M
Young $.4M
Infield
Furcal $6.5M
Blake $5M
Martin $4M (1st year arb award)
Loretta $1.25M
Ardoin $.7M (1st year arb award)
Loney $.5M
DeWitt $.4M
TBD $.4M
13 Remaining 40 Man Roster Players $.825M
$91M (Giants) minus $72M equals $19M, not $29M, thus not enough for Manny, let alone Manny plus Pettitte by this measure.
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.
