2010 Yankees Payroll

So I’ve done this a couple of times in the past (click here for the most recent ), but I decided to change up the style I used to do it in. Most specifically, I’ve left out the young players that have yet to sign contracts for 2010. In the past I just estimated what they were going to be paid, but essentially there is no real negotiations involved, the Yankees pay them whatever they want based on service time, so what they end up with is really just a wild guess.

Player	2010 Salary
Alex Rodriguez	$32,000,000
CC Sabathia	$23,000,000
Derek Jeter	$21,000,000
Mark Teixeira	$20,000,000
AJ Burnett	$16,500,000
Mariano Rivera	$15,000,000
Jorge Posada	$13,100,000
Andy Pettitte	$11,750,000
Javier Vazquez	$11,500,000
Robinson Cano	$9,000,000
Nick Swisher	$6,750,000
Curtis Granderson	$5,500,000
Nick Johnson	$5,500,000
Damaso Marte	$4,000,000
Chad Gaudin	$2,950,000
Randy Winn	$2,000,000
Sergio Mitre	$850,000
Boone Logan	$590,000
Total	$200,990,000

That’s 18 players making just over $200 million. The players who don’t have contracts yet are Joba Chamberlain, Phil Hughes, David Robertson, Alfredo Aceves, Francisco Cervelli, Ramiro Pena, Brett Gardner, and Jamie Hoffmann. Like I said before, the Yankees pretty much pay them whatever they want, but it is based on playing time. So expect Joba and Hughes, who have played the most out of everyone on that list, to make the most money while Cervelli, Pena, Gardner, and Hoffmann will either make the league minimum or just barely over.
