If they didn't have Johan

this would be what? $66 million range?

Take out Johan Santana and Jason Bay

And the Mets’ payroll would drop to $50 million.

That’s not a typo.

They’re paying Santana ($24M) and Bay ($16M) a combined $40 million, and the rest of the team a combined $50 million.

They are "lucky"

that they are a big market team. Any other team that makes mistakes like those would be drowning right now.
