The Wounded Warriors

The Yankees enjoyed a memorable Monday at the White House when they met President Barack Obama. Prior to their visit was an experience several players coined a sobering experience, a visit to wounded warriors at Walter Reed Medical Center and the Mologne House, "the real heroes" according to Alex Rodriguez.

This photo, provided by the Yankees, is Derek Jeter greeting many of the brave men and women who served our country. Before they head to Baltimore to open a three-game set against the Orioles, Yankees players and staff will display the World Series trophy before the office of Dan Rosenblatt, Executive Director of the International Association of Chiefs of Police, a non-profit organization that represents 20,000 police executives in over 89 countries. In the afternoon it's a meet-and-greet with Supreme Court Justice and Bronx native Sonia Sotomayor, followed by lunch in the United States Senate Dining Room with wounded warriors and U.S. senators.

Furthermore, 20 wounded veterans —10 from from Walter Reed and 10 from Bethesda Naval Hospital — will be the Yankees' invited on-field guests prior to tonight's game during batting practice. Tomorrow, selected players will visit the Bethesda Naval Hospital and display the trophy at a Pentagon luncheon followed by a tour through the Pentagon offices.

2010 New York Yankees Payroll

by Kevin Rozell

Jeff Euston over at Cot’s Baseball Contracts helped me crunch some numbers about the 2010 New York Yankees.

The New York Yankees currently rank #1 with the highest payroll in MLB, which is pretty much obvious by now. The 2010 New York Yankees have an Opening Day payroll of $206.3 million, which is a 2% increase over last year. Their biggest rival, the Boston Red Sox, ranked #2 with a $162.4 million payroll and had a 33% increase over last season. Throughout Major League Baseball, 47% of teams lowered their payrolls, but the Yankees and Red Sox were not among them. The Yanks have a $213,359,389 million payroll if you are counting minor-leaguers with major league contracts (Miranda & Brackman) and others playing elsewhere (Kei Igawa, Chad Gaudin & Melky Cabrera)

Opening Day payrolls for 25-man roster (salaries plus pro-rated signing bonuses):

2010: $206.3 2009: $201,449,189 2008: $209,081,577

2010 Payroll Obligations: $4,000,000 (Kei Igawa) (plus $4M in 2011), $737,500 (Chad Gaudin), $500,000 (Melky Cabrera)

According to the Annual Review Of Global Sports Salaries, the New York Yankees have the highest paid per player average in all of sports. (1. New York Yankees (MLB): $6,977,080, 2. Real Madrid (La Liga): $6,321,059, 3. Barcelona (La Liga): $6,979,447)
