Now Harvey, Gee, Baxter, Turner, Valdespin, Duda, Tejada, Edgin, Kirk, and Carson will make about $500k each, and those are 10 players. So all together that is $97MM with 4 spots open on the roster.
If the plan is to keep the payroll at $100MM next season, there will be no flexibility whatsoever to make moves.
