Official N.Y. Yankees 2009 SEASON THREAD (103-59) WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!

You can figure out the payroll of a baseball team any way you want. There's the 40-man roster, the 25-man roster, you can add signing bonuses, other benefits, etc.

Here's how I'm doing it: The salaries for the 25-man roster plus any players on the disabled list. I also added in any bonus payments being paid this year. By that method, I have the Yankees with a payroll of $206,880,950 for this season.

It breaks down like this:

Alex Rodriguez: $33 million
CC Sabathia: $23 million
Mark Teixeira: $20.6 million
Derek Jeter: $20 million
A.J. Burnett: $16.5 million
Mariano Rivera: $15 million
Jorge Posada: 13.1 million
Johnny Damon: $13 million
Hideki Matsui: 13 million
Xavier Nady: $6.55 million
Robinson Cano: $6 million
Andy Pettitte: $5.5 million
Nick Swisher: $5.3 million
Chien-Ming Wang: $5 million
Damaso Marte: $3.75 million
Jose Molina; $2 million
Melky Cabrera: $1.4 million
Brian Bruney: $1.25 million
Cody Ransom: $455,100
Jose Veras: $432,975
Joba Chamberlain: $432,575
Edwar Ramirez: $422,500
Brett Gardner: $414,000
Phil Coke: $403,300
Jonathan Albaladejo: $403,075
Ramiro Pena: $400,000

You could add in the Major League contracts of Kei Igawa ($4 million), Andrew Brackman ($1.137,500) and Juan Miranda ($400,000). That would make it $212,418,450.

here is a question to ponder...on April 16th who should throw out the first pitch?

In my opinion if it is anyone other than George Steinbrenner it will be wrong.

thoughts?
 
idk about you but Tex seems to be amazing as a Yankee. He knows how to speak and says the right things in interviews without sounding like a human robot

And the way he plays first reminds me so much of Tino, it's scary.

I'm so happy Teixeira is our 1B for the next eight seasons

Looks like a beautiful day for baseball in Baltimore. Can't wait to get home for the game.
 
If he is in ok shape then the Boss has to definitely throw out the first pitch...if not it will probably either be Yogi or Reggie...that would be my guess

If Boss man cant do it maybe Brian Cashman

Someone who left a comment on the LoHud Yankees Blog last year referred to that jaw as a "dinosaur jaw"
