The Larue money-save got me thinking about the payroll next year. Everyone who made around 300k last year I'm putting down for the minimum .380. If you have any insight into how pre-arbitration players arrive at their figures help me out. Should we expect any of these guys to get a bigger bump? The other numbers are correct I'm pretty sure. And like the Reds I'm counting Griffey's deferred money this year. I'm listing the '06 numbers for Harang, Lohse and Ross and not including them in the total.

Griffey    12.5
Dunn       10.5
Gonzalez    3.5
Freel         2.0
Hatteberg   1.5
Valentin    1.25
Castro       .925
Ross         [.50]
Phillips       .380
Encarnacion  .380
Denorfia     .380
Olmedo       .380

Milton    9.0
Arroyo    3.8
Harang   [2.35]
Lohse    [3.95]
5th       .380

Cormier   2.25
Stanton   2.0
Coffey     .380
Bray       .380
Majewski   .380
Belisle     .380
Standridge .380

Wilson and Aurilia buyouts 1.05

Total 54.075
Plus whatever Harang, Lohse and Ross get
Plus Larue cash

So what can we expect the arb players to command and where will the payroll figure be? I'm thinking we have very little to play with.
