The Best DL Money Can Buy

I'm not the first person to point out all the money currently sitting on the Disabled List for the Yankees, but I couldn't stop myself from writing it down.

Here are the list of players currently on the DL, including their 2013 salaries...

Alex Rodriguez - $28 million
Mark Teixeira - $22.5 million
Derek Jeter - $17 million
Curtis Granderson - $13 million
Kevin Youkilis - $12 million
Joba Chamberlain - $1.875 million
Ivan Nova - $575,600
Michael Pineda - $528,475
Francisco Cervelli - $515,350
Cesar Cabral - $490,000

Total: $96,484,425

That's more than the total payroll of 16 teams (MLB team salary information courtesy of Newsday.com).
