2012 Team Salary Thoughts

Was thinking about the 2012 team today, seems like it could be quiet a pricey bunch, ya?

Here are the guys who the team has under control for 2012, I plugged them into their appropriate slots. I guessed on ARB guys and got salary info from the new BP compensation pages.

SP – Colby Lewis, $3.25 million

SP – Feldman, $6.5 million

SP – Matt Harrison, $2.5 million

SP – Alexi Ogando, $450,000

SP – Derek Holland, $450,000

CL – Feliz, $450,000

BP – Adams, $5 million

BP – Uehara, $4 million

BP – O’Day, $1.2 million

BP – Yoshi, $1 million

BP -

BP -

C – Napoli, $6.25 million

1B – Moreland, $430,000

2B – Kinsler, $7.2 million

3B – Beltre, $15 million

SS – Elvis, $3 million

LF – Hamilton, $15.25 million

CF – Martin, $2 million

RF – Cruz, $5.5 million

DH – Young, $16 million

BN – Yorvit, $3.25 million

BN – Murphy, $2.5 million

BN – Borbon, $500,000

BN –

 

Total: $101,680,000

 

That seems like a lot, right? I know we expect the team salary to steadily increase, but if you add a big CJ contract into this it grows even more. Plus, where will we fit Neftali into the rotation?

Just thinking on a boring Sunday folks.

I feel like me saying no shit

is a definite understatement. Gotta find someway to get out of that contract or do they just wait it out?

I'd still like to see him with regular PT when completely healthy

If he can just look like a 4 or 5 then he becomes a very valuable 6 on this team.

You're right

Cots Contracts confirms this is the case.

I think

Murphy and O’Day could be non-tendered. Not that is really matters salary wise.

by RangerMad on Aug 28, 2011 4:34 PM CDT reply actions  

It could matter

Thats probably 3+ million that you wont have to spend on them next year

by bigsteve on Aug 28, 2011 4:36 PM CDT up reply actions  

they are going to spend the money

if not on O’Day and Murphy then on a 4th OF and/or another RP.

by RangerMad on Aug 28, 2011 5:37 PM CDT up reply actions  

Not this again

Anger logic's so great I kinda forget what we saw in regular logic in the first place.

Few things

Holland is on the cusp of Super 2 status.

He’ll have 2.120 days of service time and the cutoff is usually right around that area so he could be arb eligible.

Napoli will get well over 6.25 mil. Cruz will get more than 5.5 mil

My guess is Murphy and ODay are not here next year whether its via trade or non-tender.
