Default Mariners payroll=$111 million

Or at least so says Larry Stone.

Quote:
The team is using a working budget figure of $111 million, which includes about $103 million in raw salaries, another $6 million or so in pro-rated signing bonuses, and their annual "contingency fund" of $2 million for prospective deals and minor-league callups.
Well, they said they were going to raise the payroll this year and they did. The Mariners have never breached the triple digit mark until now.

Now, if we can just get some rise in wins, to go along with the rise in dollars, then we might be going somewhere.
