I feel like there is a lot of money spent here on older bench players. I do like the bullpen you put together and it's impossible not to like the rotation considering what playoff teams fielded this year. Looks like there is a typo in your final payroll but I'll guess that was supposed to be Luis Severino based on price.
Is it just me or is Soto going to get a $700 million dollar deal?
I like bringing it back with a lot of the same role players from last year, adding Soto and Chapman. I'd love a 2-3 yr deal with Walker Buehler, and if we don't resign Alonso (I would like to at 6/150), would prefer a 3 yr/75 with Christian Walker who is elite with the glove and still as productive as anyone at the position when healthy. I would also splurge on Tanner Scott if at all possible. Happy to bring back Stanek, but not sure about Maton at his price. Good in the regular season, but we need more gas coming out of the pen in the postseason. Happy with a Marte/Winker DH platoon.
I think the payroll is gonna be over $300 million.

Merrifield and Michael Taylor are the bench players and while they're older, they're not that expensive.
And no typo (that I'm aware of) and not Severino on this roster
Francisco Rodriguez $21.50?
That's the figure that Cot's has for him

Certainly possible the bidding reaches that level with Soto.
It's very realistic the payroll could be above $300 million, which would make adding a starter like Buehler a good idea.
I wanted to avoid multi-year deals to keep spots open for Clifford and Drew Gilbert.
