> According to the USA Today, the 2008 payroll is $73,677,616; in 2003
it was $45,210,000. That's about a 63% increase.
The raw increase in payroll means nothing by itself. It has to be weighted
against the increase in revenue (significant) and the increase in
operational costs (also significant) before it's illustrative of anything. >> Stay informed about: Ticket prices have increased 69 per cent |

It means nothing to me if it's not reflective of on-field results.
Would the people complaining about the payroll be happier if the Pads
had been spending like the Dodgers and Giants the past few years, with
similar results? >> Stay informed about: Ticket prices have increased 69 per cent |
