Salary arbitration is still very much in play, but with the exception of 16 clubs, we can start to flesh out the amount of salary already allocated for some clubs as we approach the 2010 season.
While we intend on doing this by each division shortly, we thought a tease might be in order.
Below is a listing of 2010 salary allocated by the Atlanta Braves, to date. Remember... this is all base salary information. No deferments.
