Padres 08 Payroll - Please Help

by planetjeffy on Dec 19, 2007 2:14 PM PST Comment 11 comments

With all the discussions about how much the Pads can/will spend for 08, I can't find any numbers for where we are now. Here is what I have, but I know I am missing a few things.
Update [2007-12-19 23:13:29 by planetjeffy]:Thanks for all the help, as I keep updating the roster. Many of these links are not up to date and are missing "realistic" projections. I am trying to get to the bottom of the "we only have 2M left to spend" talk, etc.

Starting lineup:
C: Bard $3M (Sign to avoid arbitration - guess)
1B: A-Gon $.75M
2B: Iguchi $3.85M
3B: Kouz $0.4M
SS: Greene $5M (Sign to avoid arbitration - guess)
RF: Giles $9M
CF: Edmonds $6M
LF: ?

Bench:
Hairston $0.4M
P-Mac/Rodriguez/Stansberry/ $0.4M
C-Barrett $3.5M

Rotation:
Peavy $6M
Young $2.5M
Maddux $10M
Wolf $4.75M
SP ?

Pen:
Hoffy $7.5M
Bell $0.4M
Cla $0.4M
Thatcher $0.4M
Hampson $0.4M
Cameron/other $0.4M

This comes to around 64M - 65M plus a left fielder and #5 starter.

Giles

Interesting to look at that chart and see the option on Giles for 2009. Pay him $9 million to play? Or hand him a check for $3 million to walk. I guess it all depends on his health and his numbers in '08.

$3 million

would go a long way towards a state-of-the-art tanning complex.

Updated

I updated the salary chart thingy at Friar Forecast just recently. I've left all out the minimum/questionable guys, but right now I have them at about 51m this year (I know that's low), 27.5 next year, 26m in 09, and 30m in 2010 (if they pick up all options).
