During Monday’s media session I asked Diamondbacks General Manager Mike Hazen a very direct question. In lieu of lost revenues due to the Pandemic, and the cost cutting moves he just made, is it fair to speculate that 2021 Payroll would likely be significantly lower than the 120+ million they were slated to pay out entering the 2020 season. He wasn’t having it, tersely responding:
I understand your question. I’m not in a position to speculate on that right now. We haven’t had those types of discussions. That comes at the end of the season.
