The Yankees are paying half your salary. That's what the New York Yankees think of you. They're paying you three and a half million dollars to play against them."
October 30, 201411 yr Only other option was paying them more to stay...It shouldn't be too difficult to find a couple other guys who suck to fill those spots for that dollar amount.

October 31, 201411 yr Only other option was paying them more to stay... For sure. The only thing is last season they had $13 million to fill those spots. Now they have $6.5 million to fill them--unless they are going to increase payroll.

October 31, 201411 yr 15.5 million. They dumped 9 million with Broxton. I thought he only made $7 million last season? His salary for this season will pretty much be eaten up with the $6 million increases due to Phillips, Votto, Bruce, Bailey and Latos arbitration number.

His salary for this season will pretty much be eaten up with the $6 million increases due to Phillips, Votto, Bruce, Bailey and Latos arbitration number. He's due to make 9 million this year, and a mutual option for 9 million in 2016 with a $2million buyout.
