Los Angeles Dodgers payroll

Full details on the Dodgers’ roster, service time, and payroll

MLB: San Francisco Giants at Los Angeles Dodgers Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

This is an overview look at the Los Angeles Dodgers’ payroll, with details about every player on the 40-man roster, plus several others.

This counts payroll as the payments actually happen, rather than average annual value. We will track the competitive balance tax and related issues in separate posts as needed. This worksheet is more a resource to use throughout the season and offseason, and will be updated accordingly.

Below you will find details on service time, roster status, and contract information for every Dodger. Service time is in days and years, so 4.123 means four years, 123 days of major league service time. The season is 187 days long, with 172 days accrued needed for a full season. The minor league season is 153 days long.

The minimum major league salary for 2019 is $555,000. The minimum minor league salary for those on the 40-man roster is $45,300 in 2019. For those not on their first major league contract, the minimum minor league salary is $90,400.

Some of these values (in italics) are estimated. For the old payroll worksheet, click here. I have also added a column for 2019 with the Dodgers’ payroll as it relates to the competitive balance tax. That column is in bold.

$540,000 x 40/183 = $118,033

Andre Ethier

The Dodgers declined Ethier’s $17.5 million option for 2018 on Nov. 5, 2017, instead paying him a $2.5 million buyout.

***

Ethier signed a five-year extension on June 12, 2012 worth a guaranteed $85 million. The deal also has a vesting option for a sixth season, based on plate appearances in 2017 or 2016-2017, that could bring the total value of the deal to $100 million. The payout:

2013: $13.5 million
2014: $15.5 million
2015: $18 million
2016: $18 million
2017: $17.5 million
2018: $17.5 million club option (or $2.5 million buyout)

The 2018 option vests if Ethier has 550 plate appearances in 2017, or 1,100 plate appearances in 2016-17.

2012: signed a one-year deal worth $10.95 million on January 17, 2012, plus incentives, avoiding salary arbitration. Ethier can earn up to $50,000 in performance bonuses based on plate appearances:

$25,000 for 600 PA - earned October 1
$25,000 for 625 PA

Ethier signed a two-year deal on January 19, 2010, avoiding salary arbitration. The deal was worth a total of $15.25 million:

$500,000 signing bonus
2010: $5.5 million
2011: $9.25 million

In addition, Ethier can earn up to $375,000 in incentives in 2010-2011:

Annually (2010-2011)

$25,000 for 600 PA
$50,000 for 650 PA
$50,000 for 675 PA

Achieving those incentives in 2010 (he didn't) would have also added those amounts to Ethier's 2011 base salary. Ethier didn't earn any bonuses in 2010 or 2011.

2009: Avoided arbitration with a one-year deal on Feb. 17, 2009 worth $3.1 million, plus potential for $100,000 in incentives:

$25,000 for 596 plate appearances -- achieved September 8

Julio Urias

2019: $565,000

***

2018: $550,000

Urias was optioned to the minors for 17 days (Aug. 24-Sep. 9), leaving 170 days on the major league roster (or disabled list).
$550,000 x 170/187 = $500,000

2017: $540,000

Urias was recalled from Triple-A on Apr. 27, and optioned on May 21, earning 24 days of service time.
$540,000 x 24/183 = $70,820

***

2016: $507,500

Urias had his contract purchased from Triple-A on May 27, then optioned back to the minors on May 28. Urias was called back to the majors on May 31, replacing an injured Alex Wood. Because it was within 10 days, the option doesn't count, and Urias gets paid and accrues service time as if he was never sent down. He was then optioned on July 5, earning a total of 39 days of service time dating back to May 27.
$507,500 x 39/183 = $108,156

Urias was recalled from Triple-A on July 21, then optioned on July 22, earning 1 day of service time.
$507,500 x 1/183 = $2,773

Chase Utley

Utley announced his retirement in July 2018, effective at the end of the season. The Dodgers officially released utley on Nov. 9, 2018.

***

Utley signed a two-year, $2 million deal on Feb. 17, 2018.

2018: $1 million
2019: $1 million

2016: $7 million

***

2015: $10,000,000 (plus a $5 million roster bonus)
2016-18: vesting club options ($2 million buyout)

Utley' options for 2016-2018 automatically vest at $15 million with 500 plate appearances in the season before. Otherwise, they become club options worth either $5 million, $7 million, $9 million or $11 million based on time on the active roster.

Utley was acquired from the Phillies in a three-player deal on Aug. 19, 2015, with 46 days left in the regular season.

$10,000,000 x 46/183 = $2,513,661.

The Phillies are sending the Dodgers $383,661 by Oct. 15 as part of the trade, per the Associated Press, and will cover the cost of the $2 million buyout if the Dodgers decline Utley's 2016 option ("on track to be at a price of $11 million.").

The Phillies will also pay all of the $5 million roster bonus to Utley in 2015.

Utley's 2016 club option is worth $11 million, the maximum amount, because he spent at least 125 days on an active roster in 2015.

The Dodgers declined Utley's 2016 option on Nov. 6, 2015.

$550,000 x 35/187 = $102,941
