... with that $68M figure. I ran the numbers and prior to the Iwakuma signing the payroll stood at ~$58M. Figuring that they will approximate the payroll that they had in 2012 (everyone seems to think that this is so), that will give them about $27M to play with. Iwakuma just took a $6.5M bite out of that pie, so now they are down to ~$21M.
If you are wondering, my number is already loaded with a hefty raise for Vargas, Kelly, and Jaso.
