Rays owner Stuart Sternberg was a guest on 620 AM and told hosts Andy Freed and Dave Wills that the club will reduce payroll after this season. "It won't be 70 (million) and it won't be 60 (million)," he said. The payroll is around $72 million for 2010 and includes huge contracts for Carl Crawford ($10 million), Carlos Pena ($10.125 million) and newly signed closer Rafael Soriano ($7.25 million). "We did outspend ourselves last year and completely outspent ourselves this year, and we'll feel the effects of that next year," Sternberg said.
