Just a quick payroll question

[kroth1342]

Does anyone know how much we have committed to players under contract for 07 as of now?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

If my count is right, roughly 65 million.

[soccer10k]

If my count is right, roughly 65 million.

 

Is that counting what ARam will make if he doesn't opt out?

Yes that's with Aram under his current deal. It's also estimating Zambrano at around 10 million.
