February 6, 200521 yr Since I was bored, I decided to calculate all 30 teams payrolls, plus the situation for 2006. I just got done with the Marlins, so i'll post it here: those numbers are off. here's the marlins full payroll I'm not sure how accurate this are, if they're off, blame these two sites: rotoworld.com dugoutdollars.blogspot.com Mike Hampton ? ? ?8.5 million ? ? Al Leiter ? ? ? ? 8 million Mike Lowell ? ? ? 8 million Luis Castillo ? ? 5.33 million Juan Encarnacion ?4.35 million Paul Lo Duca ? ? ?4.25 million Carlos Delgado ? ?4 million A.J. Burnett ? ? ?3.65 million Juan Pierre ? ? ? 3.4 million Alex Gonzalez ? ? 3.4 million Jeff Conine 3 million Guillermo Mota ? ?2.6 million Josh Beckett ? ? ?2.4 million Ivan Rodriguez ? ?2 million Ismael Valdez ? ? 1.5 million Todd Jones ? ? ? ?1.1 million Jim Mecir ? ? ? ? 1.1 million Damion Easley ? ? 750,000 John Riedling ? ? 750,000 Mike DiFelice ? ? 500,000 Matt Perisho ? ? ?475,000 Lenny Harris ? ? ?475,000 Dontrelle Willis ?400,000 Miguel Cabrera ? ?375,000 Tim Spooneybarger 350,000 Chad Bentz ? ? ? ?320,000 Antonio Alfonseca 316,000 Chris Aguila ? ? ?316,000 minor leagues: 750,000 total payroll: 72,607,000 here's how the salary is going for 2006: Escalation: Delgado +9.5 Alfonseca +2.384 Lo Duca +2 Free agents after this year/ salary deflation: Harris -.475 Perisho -.475 Mecir -1.1 Jones -1.1 Valdez -1.5 Mota -2.6 Gonzalez -3.4 Burnett -3.65 Encarnacion -4.35 Conine -4.75 Leiter -8 Hampton -8.5 arbitration eligible: Beckett Spooneybarger Pierre estimate of arbitration raises: 4 million Locked up for 2006: 15 players @ 52.091 million If the Marlins were to re-sign all those free agents at their 2005 price, the payroll would be 81.991 million
February 6, 200521 yr A) Pierre isn't a free agent in 2006 B) Leiter isn't being paid $8 million IN 2006 C) Of the $11 million owed Hampton, $2.5 million comes from the Rockies - Net $8.5 million
February 6, 200521 yr Hampton is off the books, so you can't count on re-signing him for the 2006 season. As for the other free agents you can count on not coming back: Leiter, Encarnacion, and I'm guessing Valdez.
February 6, 200521 yr With those corrections, it sounds like the team could have just enough to give extensions to Beckett and Burnett and maintain the same payroll.

I'm assuming he's arbitration eligible then? B) I didn't say he was C) alright, i'll go and fix that
