Scott Boras Critical Of MLB Teams Spending Below $100M On Payroll
Scott Boras was critical of the spending of several teams as five clubs project to have sub-$100 million payrolls for the 2025 season.
“You’ve got a number of teams that are spending below $100 million,” Boras said on the Foul Territory podcast. “Last year, there were six teams spending below $100 million, and the money they get from the general fund is above that.”
Boras signed Juan Soto and Blake Snell to significant contracts, but other clients such as Alex Bregman and Pete Alonso signed for shorter deals than anticipated.
“It’s not small market–large market. It’s how much of your revenues are you spending on a 40-man roster to show your fans you’re committed,” Boras said.
