That’s $87 million in additional payroll for the A’s just in 2019. I highly doubt the A’s spend that much and have a $140 million+ payroll when they’ve never surpassed $100 million.

Also Happ will get more than that, and those are generous numbers for Familia ($15 million set up man? )

I could see most of those deals happen, just not all of them.
