We are sitting about 225 projected right now assuming they cut Dillon Tate. That includes projected arb as well. That also includes 16m if Bieber doesn't opt out. If he does, that's 209m so about 46m short of last year's budget.
Probably not enough to sign bo and two starters but an increase in budget for this year would not be crazy, you'd think.
I'd pitch ownership on a decent increase 2026 and 2027. Money is coming off the books in both years.
The berrios, gimenez and hoffman contracts seem like problems on some level. Eye test to me Gimenez always seems like he should be able to hit.
