30.4m
Thats what they owe Stanton and McMahon
Does Hal eat the money to open 2 positions on the roster
We shall see, but IMO its starts with the decision on those 2 before they can move forward

Randy Arozarena is a below-average defensive LF (-2 DRS/-5 OAA in 2026) and would push Cody Bellinger off of left field and into centerfield.
If he's notably cheaper than Seiya Suzuki I'd be somewhat interested, but if you're getting a 31-32 year old corner bat I'd like Suzuki
Per @RyanDivish of the Seattle Times, the Mariners are unlikely to match the market price for Randy Arozarena.
He later lists the Yankees as a team in need of right-handed hitting who could pursue the 31-year-old outfielder.
Should the Yankees pursue Arozarena?

Dodgers player Alex Call is calling out MLB and broadcasters over the ads during postseason games.
"Can we please get the soft porn ads off playoff broadcasts? My son wants to watch baseball with Dada, but how do I justify that when a half-naked woman could come on screen anytime?? This is America’s Pastime. Parents shouldn’t have to worry about this."

Major League Baseball wants a salary cap and says it's to ensure smaller-market, lower-payroll teams can win in the postseason.
Milwaukee, Cleveland and Tampa Bay are winning without one.

Here is where ESPN is playing a dangerous game of chicken
They tried for YEARS to fix wayward booths after Mike Tirico left and Buck/Aikman together did that for them
If Aikman walks, what if Buck and his new partner don’t have the same excellent chemistry?
Glass Break: Joe Buck and Troy Aikman have had tension after Buck got a new ESPN deal and Aikman hasn't gotten a formal offer.
Buck "broke the ice" on the unspoken tension and the two had an argument in MNF announce booth this week, sources said

Joe Buck and Troy Aikman had an argument before Monday night's Rams-Bills game over tension surrounding their ESPN contract situations, per @sportsrapport.
Buck recently agreed to a new 6-year deal worth approximately $108M, while Aikman has yet to receive an extension offer. Aikman's contract expires after this season, and his future at ESPN remains uncertain.
The disagreement eventually de-escalated, and the two went on to call the game without viewers noticing anything unusual.
