You are funny, they aren't hurting.

Count Cougar

May 4, 8:54pm

Oh yeah, they are definitely scrambling. I don’t know how they’ll pay him.

Why not just pay him same amount every year?

Completely false.

This is what I'm saying. Gas lighting at its finest. And then they try to insult you by likening you to a yewt or aggie

26 man payroll - Braves $190MM. Dodgers $173MM. 7th highest in baseball.

Really? Didn’t know that.

Let me help you out.

Thanks. That taxable amount is a thing of beauty. Hope no one gets hurt.

Irrelevant number. They have a $314m payroll, second highest in baseball

TCuz

May 4, 9:45pm

I agree. I hope we outspend everyone. But what is your source for $314MM. I

Several sources for actual payroll (the truth) and not the bad number Sportac runs with

You're right, it's more of a USU post than a Ute post. And, 2 more runs.

Imagine thinking this was somehow deragatory towards the Dodgers. My kingdom for an org that will spend like that.
