Hey guys, Time to decide what our team salary limit will be for the 2009 season. By now we have all had enough time to ponder and discuss this. Please indicate the amount we should set to assure a reasonable competitive balance in the league. We need to have a limit that is not too restrictive but is also not too permissive. I am proposing that the MLB salaries of all players on the 40-man roster would count toward the team total. Players who are still minor leaguers in MLB would get a minimum salary of $400K if they are promoted to the 25-man roster before September 1. Otherwise, they will get paid a minor league salary of $200K. The lowest possible team salary with this approach would be 25 guys @ $400K and another 15 @ $200K. That comes to only $13M. Of course, the big contracts for established veterans will bump that up quite a bit. |
