Purely s*** ball'in numbers here ( don't hate me) but....
We started at 117 I believe and I have to believe Shatkins and the ownership had several payroll decision or Senario's budgeted for
So let's assume that they had
EE at 20 all along
Cecil at what was it 5-6 million, let's say six!! That puts us at 143 mill
Now let's say they factored in they 17.2 mill, oh s*** Batz accepted payroll goes to 160 without a blink! Not sure if we would have done both either, but!
Now we still need to fill out the roster and need depth most likely costing another 15-18 mill ? So 178 might have been on the books when all is said and done!
So if we say they hoped only one of EE or Batz stayed, we have payroll budget of 158 -161 million give or take either way!
BBBB the old Drunk misunderstood troll who lives under the bridge in you hate and hearts !!! Lol
Thank you guys!!!
