Let's see:

Buehrle - $9.5 million, FA after this year (at this point, anyways)
Contreras - $9 million this year, $10 million in 2008 & 2009.
Garland - $10 million this year, $12 million in 2008.
Whoever the #5 guy is - league minimum, I'd assume.

The bullpen is the cheap part:

Aardsma - league minimum, arbitration eligible in 2009.
Jenks - league minimum, arbitration eligible in 2009.
MacDougal - $1.5 million, $1.95 mil in 2008, $2.65 mil in 2009 - I think there's an option/buyout in 2010.
Thornton - $500k, arbitration eligible next year.
Other bullpen guys would be league minimum, AFAIK.

Geez.. So he's the highest paid pitcher on our roster, Id assume second highest paid player to Paulie's $15k?

Makes no sense. We should be resigning #56 instead of throwing money at this guy.
