Arod makes 27 million this year
Sabathia makes 23 million this year
Jeter makes 19 million this year
Teixeria makes 20 million this year

those 4 make 17 million more than the rays entire roster

Burnett 16.5
Mariano 15
posada 13 million
Andy P 11.75
Vasquez 11 million
cano 9 million
Swisher 6.75
granderson 5.5
johnson 5.75

They got Arod in a trade for homegrown players just like how Boston got Beckett and Lowell. Right?
