Total payroll is a little under $189 million. Assume some of the young players will be eligible for arbitration and will get raises. Guys like Smith and Davis are not going to be cheap to sign. Even Castro is going to get a big raise. Probably looking at another $10 million there at least. Now let's assume you want to extend Conforto and Lindor. Let's assume they are fairly reasonable to deal with and sign (doubtful, Boros is Conforto's agent). Best case would be $30 million a year for Lindor, let's say $25 million for Conforto. Let's say Syndergaard comes back in June and does reasonably well. Let's say he is willing to sign for $16 million a year. That is another $28 million or so added to the payroll for extensions. Total of $38 million counting arbitration raises. How do you handle these extensions, retain your best talent and add Springer with his $30 million a year salary Toronto just signed him to? Unless they cut some salary, we are looking at a payroll for 2021 of around $227 million. Springer would take the payroll is around $257 million. McNeil and Alonso are eligible for arbitration in 2022. There are challenges. Cano doesn't come off the books until 2024. This is why that trade was the most moronic trade in the history of professional sports. Ugh. [/QUOTE]
