The $1.32 billion is the total combined contracts these four teams shelled out for Nolan Arenado, Bryce Harper, Manny Machado, and Mike Trout last offseason. However, these teams ended the season a combined 60 games under .500, with the Phillies leading the way with a meager 81-81 record. With the lackluster performances in the standings, it begs this question: Which team has received the best return on their investment so far after one season?
Nolan Arenado — 8 years/$260 Million
Arenado had arguably his best season in his seven-year career.
