Pujolsapalooza: Multiple Reports - 10 Year Contract with Angels
Mainge, I can envision the Marlins struggling to turn a profit over the next 3 or 4 years, but I think they are going to bank on the average growth in league revenues remaining the same and making the backend of the contract very tolerable.
It is completely realistic to say in 5 years the average ML team's payroll is ~$115 million.
The highest payroll in 2001 was $109,000,000. In 2011 it was $201,000,000.
