No real problem in this regard just yet, even with FA invoked in place of the Reserve Clause.
Our budget is like $750k vs our payroll of just under $100k. Things are changing now, though, with the onset of Ruth, so it will get a lot tighter in a decade or so.
Foster is the interesting one. He's only on $3k per and has an opt-out at the end of this season that I am 100% convinced he will exercise. It'll come down to how much he wants for how long as to whether we sign him or let him walk. That said, he'd have to be incredibly unreasonable for us not to re-sign him.
