Each row is one player’s 2026 allocation with the club. Adjusted is the player’s prorated payroll allocation, and the Adjusted figures sum to the club’s published $115,748,036 total, which includes active-roster salary plus injured-list, retained, dead and buried minor-league money. Salary is the full payroll salary published for the season, so the two can differ when money is deferred, prorated or carried by another club.
