1. Pedro Martinez 14,875,000
2. Carlos Beltran 13,571,429
3. Carlos Delgado 13,500,000
4. Tom Glavine 10,500,000
5. Billy Wagner 10,500,000

But what are they supposed to do? Do you have a better idea? The Mets and Yankees are in the biggest city in the country. They compete in that city for business. They have the means to spend more than other teams- why shouldnt they?
