It's hard to put $40 million into perspective.
That's how much the Los Angeles Dodgers owe reigning National League Cy Young winner Trevor Bauer in the first season of a three-year, $102 million contract, making him the highest-paid player in baseball in 2021.
If you're cost-conscious, you could build an entire team with that much money.
Don't believe me? That's exactly what we did...sort of.
We've chosen a 15-player roster consisting of a starter at each of the eight defensive positions, a designated hitter, five starting pitchers and one reliever. This star-studded group could give any team in baseball a run for its money.
