BlackBetsy Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) Here's what I have for the Sox with their current payroll: # player 2006 1 Konerko $12.00 2 Buehrle $7.65 3 Garcia $9.00 4 Contreras $7.00 5 Dye $5.00 6 Hernandez $4.50 7 Thome $8.00 8 Hermie $3.00 9 Marte $2.50 10 Iguchi $2.40 11 Podsednik $1.90 12 Politte $1.20 13 Uribe $3.15 14 Widger $0.65 15 Anderson $0.35 (club control) 16 McCarthy $0.35 (club control) 17 Ozuna $0.50 18 Jenks $0.35 (club control) 19 Cotts $0.35 (club control) To be determined 20 Crede $2.00 * estimate - arbitration 21 Vizcaino $1.50 * estimate (arbitration) 22 Pierzynski $4.50 * estimate - arbitration 23 Garland $6.00 * estimate - arbitration 24 Harris $0.60 * estimate - arbitration 25 OF $1.00 * estimate (Timo 2005 salary) Total $85.45 [note - edited to include Vizcaino. Final roster has 12 pitchers. The Sox carried 11 to start 2005] If the Sox move El Duque or Marte, that obviously clears up some additional salary. Moving El Duque or Marte would get the Sox an additional $7 million in payroll flexibility. Edited December 1, 2005 by BlackBetsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 + $4M in buyouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AddisonStSox Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) If they aren't at exactly the $85M mark, they're awfully close. Just looking at Thome's figure and some of the others, I don't know if $85M is a certainty. Either way, I'm in stunned disbelief. I never thought I'd see the payroll after winning the World Series rise to $85M. The thought of being considered amongst the elite clubs in the league makes me giddy. They still have a lot to prove, but, if the Sox were to have another storied season, we'd be right up there with those East-coasters.

Kalapse Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 QUOTE(Steff @ Nov 30, 2005 -> 02:21 PM) It's going to be higher.. Mainly because it's already pushing $89M when you include buyouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumptious96 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) when you think about it. our payroll has risen by at least $20 million over the past two seasons. 2003 was around $65. now its close to $90. that has to be one of the biggest increases in baseball over the past two seasons.

joeynach Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 I think your are missing Viscaino on there, remember there is not enough room for Marte, Viscaino, and McCarthy in the pen. THat is unless we decide to have 7 releivers which is not normal. Thome is to make 12.5 mil this year and the sox got 22 mil to pay for his 3 years of service. So thats 7.33 mil per year to pay his contract so for 2006 we pay 12.5-7.33 = 5.17 for Thome, in 07 and 08 we pay 6.67 mil per year for him.

In 2003 i think we started at $58 mil then added due to the everett and alomar trades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
