New York entered the last full month of the season with a $273.9 million payroll

$254.4 million.

梅子 $273.9 million
躲人 $267.2 million
洋基 $254.4 million

Mets pitcher Max Scherzer, at a big-league-high $43.3 million, makes roughly $5
million less than Oakland's entire team and combines with teammates Jacob deGrom
and Francisco Lindor for about $103 million -- more than eight of the 30 clubs.

薛蛇+林董+地瓜就要103M了

When the Mets last topped MLB in payroll, their total was $21.3 million.

上次梅子當薪資王的1989年，它們團隊薪資是$21.3 million.

The Mets' payroll has risen steadily since Steven Cohen bought the team from the
Wilpon and Katz families after the 2020 season. The Mets' spending rose from$1
46 million in 2019 to $199 million last year, the first season after the pandemi
c, and negotiators said last March a new tax threshold was aimed at him. Cohen t
hen quipped: "It's better than a bridge being named after you."

For purposes of the luxury tax, which uses average annual values for players on
40-man rosters, the Mets are on track to set a record at $298.8 million and ecli
pse the 2015 Dodgers' $297.9 million. Luxury tax payrolls include just over $16
million per team for benefits and $1.67 million for each club's share of the new
$50 million pool for pre-arbitration players.

但豪華稅計算，還要加上球員福利+獎金池

所以梅子其實是正朝著 $298.8 million前進

The Mets are in line for a tax of $29.9 million, Midseason trades boosted their
tax payroll from an opening-day projection of $289.3 million and past the new$2
90 million threshold in the March agreement that ended a 99-day lockout.

The Dodgers opened this season with a $310 million tax payroll, on track to pay
a record penalty of $47 million. Their tax payroll dropped to $289.96 millionby
Aug. 31, leaving them just under the Cohen Tax. With higher tax rates as a repe
at offender, the Dodgers are on track to pay $29.4 million.

躲人稅款是 $29.4 million(豪華稅團隊薪資$289.96 million)

The Yankees have a tax payroll of $267 million and a projected tax of $9.4 milli

Boston, just over the first threshold at $234.5 million, would owe about $900,00
0. After paying tax for the first time last year, San Diego is a second offender
with a payroll of about $233 million and a tax of just over $800,000.
