Tonights Line-Up and other Thoughts...

Here is the line-up for the Mets tonight as they face-off against the Reds.

1. Angel Pagan CF ($575,000/yr)
2. Alex Cora SS ($2,000,000/yr)
3. Daniel Murphy 1B ($401,000/yr)
4. David Wright 3B ($7,750,000/yr)
5. Ryan Church RF ($2,800,000/yr)
6. Jeremy Reed LF ($925,000/yr)
7. Argenis Reyes 2B (n/a)
8. Brian Schnieder C ($4,900,000/yr)
9. Fernando Nieve P ($414,000/yr)

Notice I put the salaries for all these players. Only one I could find was Argenis. That adds up to $19,765,000 in salaries for 2009. Carlos Beltran makes $19 million by himself. This just shows how bad they are hurting. Lets hope some magic happens these next 3 game before the All-Star break.
