How much money do teams get from the lux tax?? DEREK JETER

Guest · Dec 14, 2008

Or whatever it's called when teams spend too much.

Anyone got the numbers?

Serious question. Nevermind the Jeter stuff. There just hasn't been much talk about the guy, or the Yankees around here, and I thought he needed some pub.

This is more ridiculous than the Yankees spending ways if you ask me.

There are some numbers in this article.

By shedding these stars, Florida was able to cut its payroll down to $14.9 million in 2006, which is less than 20% of the Major League average of $78 million. It was also less than half of the $31 million in revenue sharing dollars the team received that year. So, rather than using the money to retain or attract on-field talent, the owners took it as part of the team's MLB best $43 million profit in 2006.

The Rays might be worse than the Marlins. From 2002 through 2006, Tampa Bay took in an average of $32 million per year in revenue sharing money. During that same period, the Rays had an average payroll of just $27 million, which was the lowest in baseball. They also had the worst five year record on the field, winning an average of just 70 games per season. Yet the team turned an average profit of more than $20 million during those years.

I still don't know where that Foe button is.

I don't think it's available on this style I use.
