Tiger's payroll?

Damion Easley has a 4-year contract at $26.5 million total for 4 years,
ending 2004, with a club option for 2005. I have some suspicion the '05
option will not be picked up. <g> There may be a buyout amount for '05 ---
usually is.

Palmer's contract is done this year. I believe that Sparks is
done too, as is Paquette.

Easley is through another year yet.

Out of curiosity, how much of Easley's contract was Tampa
Bay picking up?
