I haven't seen figures in the last few years, but the only guys ahead of him for a while were Torre and Lou. Just curious if he's the highest paid in the game?

Dusty makes 3.5
Terry Francona makes 4
La Russa makes at least 4
Those were the only two I could find
FYI
Walt's contract is up at the end of the season
500k is a huge difference in earnings. I would imagine Girardi is up there in salary. Dusty is a great manager and is not the problem with this club. I assume you are trying to justify Dusty's salary with the team's performance...
I said it on another thread. I think other GM's are afraid of getting fleeced by Walt Jocketty, so they ask for more in trade from the Reds, than other teams.
I think Walt should step aside and become an advisor to Bob C., and they should let someone else be GM. I think it is hindering the Reds ability to make trades because Walt has a reputation of getting the best of other GM's.
Most overpaid yes.
Girardi I read was at $3 mil per year... I beleive half of the major league managers make less than $1.5 mil per year.Originally Posted by jwmann2
Yes to a degree justifying a manager in the top 5 paid over the last 4 years, with a losing record with the club. I just don't know if it makes sense for us to have a top 5 pay manager that didn't really earn it with the club. $2 mil may be better allocated to players.
we squeaked that one out big time,,, is that really all this idiot can say night after night
crazy to even think but Joe Torre was making 7.5M with the Yankees in 07.
