S59 On The Books!

Jessica Fletcher - contributing reporter

Almost forgot, but thankfully we have a built in reminder of the annual 7yankee7 recruitment post; it's time to look at future budgets. If you're looking for a new league join, be sure to check them out! 

Here is who has the most committed in future seasons. List in order of most future money committed. In the 'Future salary is future owner problems' are Houston Space Cowboys at over $300M on the books. Jumping down nearly $50M is Sante Fe Surf Riders who have seen a resurgence and reclaimed their division title. Skipping down a bit more, we have Oklahoma City Barons ($221M) and Huntington Tropics ($200M). Then you get a quick dropoff before you find the 16 teams who have committed less than $100M. Least on the books is Colorado Springs, with no money tied up beyond this season. Augusta Alcoholics are still spending on...you guessed it, Alcohol with only $13.7M committed. 

The average commitment in the league is $49M next year, down to $29 then $17, then $7 by S63. 



I expect a bit of change as extensions are signed after the regular season.
