Centerfield’s 2027 Payroll Blueprint: CF Roster 2027

[Centerfield]

I feel like I did something wrong. 

I signed Tarik Skubal and Clay Holmes for the rotation, signed Sato to play 1B, and signed Alex Vesia as a lefty for the pen.  I'm at 343.94MM.  

I feel like I should be paying more.  Did I do something wrong?

• 1B: Teruaki Sato ($26M)

I cut Marcus Semien and ate the contract.  So he should be dead money, not "POS".

Though some might argue that POS is appropriate.

A happy coincidence.

BTW. To be clear. This isn’t my proposed team. I just tried some obvious moves to see if I could work this right.
