2016 Orioles Opening Day Payroll

This is the opening day Orioles team payroll for the "active" (25 Man) roster and includes the 3 players on the 15 day disabled list. The O's will have pay obligations for players on the 40 man roster and any non-roster players signed to major or minor league contracts.

All of the latest transactions are included and salary figures were obtained from the Cots Baseball Prospectus Compensation Website.

Salaries are displayed as rounded to the nearest $10k, and the total payroll is accurate to 2 decimal places.

I provide this information so that we can make accurate and useful comparisons to the opening day payrolls of the Orioles in previous years, other MLB teams and the total for Major League Baseball. As with virtually all team opening day payroll tabulations on the web, my total payroll figure does not reflect any deductions for deferred salaries or additions for set-asides for deferrals from the previous year (as required by the MLBPA). However, I have noted the contract deferrals in the right-most column of the below chart.

The Orioles opening day team payroll is $148.57M. That exceeds last year's figure by 24.8% and is the largest increase during Dan Duquette's tenure. It is also the 4th consecutive annual increase and represents a gain of 68.8% since he assumed his duties in November, 2011. [TABLE=width: 500, align: left]

Unless what we see from the O's the rest of the offseason are trades.

Matusz -- maybe -- only saves $4M before additions (if any) from trade returns

Prior to opening day, I don't see any other likely high$ candidates

Do you?

CD is 17 million.

Thanks for the response

However, as I noted in my opening post, I do not deduct salary deferrals. This is consistent with most major websites and Major League Baseball when calculating the basis for its Competitive Balance (Luxury) Tax.

The problem is that when the deferred money comes due, a lot of people will be considering that money as part of that year's payroll, as many posters did with Bonilla in the past, and with Vlad Guerrero for 2016-17.

Yeah but the luxury tax isn't the issue. How much we have to spend for the 2016 team is.

Yes, but he has the deferred amount listed. So for Davis, he has 23 and 6. Then he has it in the totals. Just subtract the two to get the current estimated cash outlay.

I appreciate your concern, but I have no ready solution for the "problem"

The "problem" is that "a lot of people" (readers here excepted):

  • do not carefully read that on which they then comment and/or
  • do not comprehend what they read and/or
  • prefer their opinions to the facts and/or
  • are unprepared or unwilling to consider other points of view as valid and/or
  • attempt, without explanation or justification, to use data for a purpose for which it was not intended
