We've hit the last day of Arbitration and moving towards Free Agency. Our top 5 big spenders are:
- New Orleans Hurricane Dodgers - $114.0M
- Colorado Springs From My Loins - $112.9M
- Pittsburgh Yinzers - $112.5M
- Chicago Gunslingers - $107.5M
- Charleston Offspring - $107.2M
Our bottom 5 spenders include:
- Tacoma Aroma - $21.1M (They can't even smell what the Rock is cookin')
- Mexico City Staring Frongs - $34.4M (Look at me now, I'm getting IFA budgets!)
- Augusta Alcoholics - $35.1M (Looking to spend money in Salem soon)
- Helena Hot Dogs - $37.4M (Is a Hot Dog a sandwich?)
- Washington DC Nationals - $44.0M (At least someone in DC isn't spending money)
Here's a look at the payrolls post-arbitration, listed by how much budget they have remaining. Could be spent on free agents / IFAs / slush funds / ponzi schemes / Tim Horton's donuts; we know which one Vancouver will be spending on. Can't wait to see what Atlanta decides to spend that $2M on!
