Also, a pitcher can still have value even if he is an injury risk. Even if he's right about the specific pitchers and their levels of risk, he talks about guys like Matt Harvey and Zack Wheeler like there is no value to having them in your organization whatsoever, which is obviously ridiculous on its face.

Updated salary outlook for 2016. I revised some of the numbers a little, as I didn't have Capps as a Super2 or the Yankees money , etc.
C- Realmuto $525k
1B - Bour - $525k
2B - Gordon $5 (arb 1)
SS - Hech $3.5 (arb 1)
3B - Prado $8 (three million covered Yankees)
LF - Yelich - $1
CF - Ozuna - $525k (no super2)
RF - Stanton - $9
B - Rojas - $525k
B - Dietrich - $525k
B - “Veteran Presence” - $1.5
B - “Veteran Presence” - $1.5
B - T. Telis - $525k (new backup catcher from rangers)
Dead - Salty - $8
Bats= $41ish
SP - Fernandez - $4 (arb1)
SP - Alvarez- $4.25 (arb2)
SP - Koehler - $3 (arb1)
SP - Cosart - $525k
SP - Nicolino - $525k
RP - Ramos - $3 (arb1)
RP - Capps - $1.5 (super2)
RP - Dunn - $3.45
RP - Phelps - $3 (arb1)
RP - Morris - $1.5 (arb1)
RP - Urena - $525k
RP - Hand - $525k
=$25ish
Total payroll = $66 millionish ($63 without those hypothetical veteran bats)
Their 2015 opening day payroll was $68.5 million ($15 million coming from LAD/NYY, so Loria out of pocket $53.5)
So payroll is actually slightly down if they field the "in house" team, but it's going to be up $15 million for papa loria's wallet.
They saved around $20 million bucks moving Morse, Latos, Haren, Cishek, and the comp pick. You can use your own judgement what payroll is going to be.

Telis is going straight to the majors, which I don't get because he'll just sit on the bench behind Realmuto and possibly Mathis. Best case he gets some pinch hits. I'd rather he just get regular AB's in AAA until the end of the season and see what we have in him thereafter.
