Devil's advocate. He will likely give a hometown discount but how much will he actually give?

Article I read earlier said they already have $121 million on the books for next year. They started the season with a $130 million payroll. Even if they are willing to bump up to $150 million, that leaves nothing for anyone else through arbitration and keeping some of the outfielders that played huge roles this year.

Hopefully I'm wrong on those numbers. I can't find a legit site that has the up to date contract numbers. The ones I've looked at still have d'Arnaud and Morton as free agents. But if those numbers are right, unless AA is given a $175+ million opening day payroll, Freddie's new contract may hamstring this team for years.
