#5. And big expectations this year.
This is an interesting big of trivia:
While the team’s payroll outpaces most of its competitors, the $20 million salary of the Cardinals’ highest paid player, catcher Yadier Molina, ranks just the 35th highest among MLB players.
Good to see that they are spreading the money around amongst many great players instead of loading such a high percentage of payroll on just a few.
