Dodgers are estimated at $197 million. That leaves them with about $9 million to play with. Previous 2 years they were over-cap. That third year of being over-cap really hurts. Penalty jumps from 20% 1st year, to 30% 2nd year, and then to 50% for the 3rd year. If they were be over by $20 million, they would then be paying a 62% penalty on their overages.
