Data after 1985 is verified through research by Doug Pappas, chairman of SABR's Business of Baseball Committee.

Mind you, Pappas only gives amounts for each individual year. The lifetime totals were added up by me and my calculator. Kingturtle 00:09, 10 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Any need to mention if retired (some are, aome aren't) --Rj 00:29, Apr 10, 2004 (UTC)

I had mentioned which players were retired so readers could see who would be making more money this year, and who wouldn't be. Kingturtle 00:52, 10 Apr 2004 (UTC)
