SANTO DOMINGO - We here at the WBA Times like to look ahead to the next offseason once the trading deadline has passed and put together a list of free agency budget forecasts. These are based on player salaries on each team's books and predicted team budgets for the following season along with predicted cash-on-hand at the end of the season. Keep in mind that these figures therefore represent the amount of money that each team could possibly spend on free agents as of now, not necessarily how much would be wise to spend. If each team hit these figures then the result would be running out of cash at the end of 2118. Also note that for 2118 team payrolls it is assumed that all options are executed, no opt-outs are executed, and all vesting options will vest.
