The Los Angeles Dodgers shattered Major League Baseball's spending record with a combined $515 million in payroll and luxury tax last year en route to their second straight World Series title, according to final figures compiled by the commissioner's office, and Los Angeles is projected for the highest total again in 2026. Los Angeles' 2025 spending included records for payroll at $345.3 million and tax of $169.4 million for a total of $514.6 million. Despite several contracts discounted to reflect deferred payments, the Dodgers' total was seven times the $68.7 million payroll of the Miami Marlins, the lowest-spending team, and more than the payrolls of the bottom-six clubs combined. Spending by the Dodgers last year topped the previous high of $430.4 million by the 2024 New York Mets and Los Angeles' total didn't include the $6.5 million signing bonus given pitcher Roki Sasaki as part of a minor-league contract. The Mets and Dodgers combined to spend $948.3 million. The ratio of the five highest spenders to the five lowest increased from 3.6 in 2021 to a record-high 4.7 last year. The Dodgers in 2025 ended the Mets' three-year streak as the top payroll, boosted by $8.5 million in earned bonuses by retiring ace Clayton Kershaw. Los Angeles' total would have been about $71 million higher but for the use of deferred money for seven players that resulted in discounting for their payroll calculations. Shohei Ohtani counts at $28.2 million because $68 million of his $70 million salary last year isn't due until 2035. The Mets finished second in payroll at $342.1 million and, with tax, had a total spend of $433.7 million. In the first five seasons after owner Steve Cohen bought the team, the Mets spent $1.44 billion without winning a title: $1.11 billion in payroll and $320 million in tax. Both the Mets and Dodgers exceeded the previous record-high payroll set by the 2024 Mets at $333.3 million. Los Angeles is projected as of MLBs opening-day figures to lead in 2026 spending with a $323.3 million payroll for its 40-man roster and a $163.7 million tax for a $487.1 million total. The Mets began with a record payroll at $358.4 million and have a projected tax of $124.1 million for a $482.5 million spend. The Cleveland Guardians have the lowest opening day 40-man payroll this year at $75.5 million. Total spending, based on regular payrolls, rose 3.1% to $5.32 billion last year from $5.16 billion in 2024 and has increased 31.3% in four seasons under the current labor contract from $4.05 billion in 2021. Those figures do not include the $50 million annual pre-arbitration bonus pool that began in the 2022 collective bargaining agreement or allocations for benefits, which are included in MLB's luxury tax payrolls. Among luxury tax payrolls, eight teams began 2026 over the $244 million tax threshold. The Dodgers ($415.2 million), Mets ($379.2 million) and New York Yankees ($339.6 million) were followed by the Toronto Blue Jays ($319.5 million), Philadelphia Phillies ($315.2 million), Boston Red Sox ($263.7 million), San Diego Padres ($260.1 million) and Atlanta Braves ($247.9 million). The Chicago Cubs started $25,000 under and the Detroit Tigers $2.5 million below. Payrolls increase and decrease during the season due to trades and roster moves. The Yankees finished 2025 with the third-highest regular payroll at $301.5 million, followed by Philadelphia ($291.9 million), AL-champion Toronto ($253.1 million), the Houston Astros ($236.4 million) and the Texas Rangers ($229.9 million). Four of the top five spenders reached the playoffs, except the Mets, along with teams whose payrolls ranked ninth, 10th, 12th, 15th, 17th, 22nd, 23rd and 25th. The Dodgers boosted payroll the most in 2025 at $74.4 million. Other teams with big 2025 increases were Detroit ($61.9 million), the Baltimore Orioles ($60.2 million to $165.6 million), San Diego ($45.6 million to $217.6 million), Philadelphia ($42.8 million) and Toronto ($34.7 million). Fifteen teams cut payrolls from 2024 to 2025, led by the Chicago White Sox (by $66.1 million to $87.9 million), the St. Louis Cardinals ($39.3 million to $139.1 million), Miami ($29.4 million to $68.8 million) and the San Francisco Giants (by $28 million to $182.9 million). The Cardinals have further slashed payroll to $102.3 million on opening day this year, and that includes about $47.4 million attributable to trades involving three players no longer with the Cardinals: Nolan Arenado, Sonny Gray and Willson Contreras. The Yankees cut payroll by $9.4 million from 2024 to 2025 and have raised it to $302.8 million this year. Eleven teams topped $200 million in 2025, matching the record set in 2023. Five teams were below $100 million, one more than the record-low in 2024. Regular payrolls for last year are based on 2025 salaries, earned bonuses and prorated shares of signing bonuses and non-cash compensation for 40-man rosters. Deferred salaries and bonus payments are discounted to present-day values, and termination pay, option buyouts and cash transactions among clubs are accounted for. MLB calculated the average salary as of Aug. 31, the last day before active rosters expanded to 26, at $4,611,595. The players' association, using a slightly different methodology, arrived at $4,721,393, Luxury tax is based on payrolls with average annual values that include benefits and the pre-arbitration bonus pool. The players' association doesn't think tax payments should be used in measuring disparity, because half the tax money goes to a commissioners discretionary fund distributed among teams eligible to receive revenue-sharing money which has grown their non-media local revenue.
