Message: [QUOTE="Knicks411, post: 3407477, member: 767"] Their initial proposal was worse than that. My Passan tweet from yesterday got buried, I'm going to post again [MEDIA=twitter]1265498615650418689[/MEDIA] Basically, they were starting from a base of a prorated half season salary, and then chopping more money off of that. If you read further along in the thread, Mike Trout, who is scheduled to make $37 million this year, was going to make about $5.7 million in their initial proposal. Definitely not half. And in this one, he's going to make about 11! (now, he is an outlier obviously, because of how much he is making that was initially esssentially going to be taxed at 80%). [/QUOTE]
