Not Saying Baseball Players Are Paid Too Much, But...-- Part 1: Sox and Cubs

Reflecting on the 2-4 White Sox and whatever the Cubs record is, I think 3-2.

The $10 million+ Club of the Sox:

Jose Abreau--  $11,330,000
John Danks--  $13 million
David Robertson--  $11,500,000
Melky Cabrera--  $14 million
Adam LaRoche--  $12,500,000

Lowest Paid Sox player--  Micah Johnson with $507,500

Cubs salaries

John Lester--  $26 million
Miguel Monteo--  $12 million
Edwin Jackson--  $13 million
Jason Hamel--  $10 million

Lowest-paid--  Dallas Beeler with $508,000.

I seem to remember back in the 1960s when Sandy Koufax and Don Drysdale held out for $100,000 each.  This is  lot, but wait until you see tomorrow's numbers.

Oh Well.  --RoadDog
