I know that Posey retired and therefore forfeits the $22 million club option for 2022.  But do the Giants still have to pay the $3 million buyout if they bring back Posey in another role in the organization?  I would assume not...

As for the payroll status, as near as I can tell, here's the Giants 2022 luxury tax situation, assuming a $210 million/team tax threshold (yes, I know it's not set in stone).  Stats from Spotrac:

Active payroll, $83 mms. (assumes deferred payroll, $4 mms. which counts against 2022,j Posey at $0 and Belt at $18 mms.).  Total current tax allocations and obligations are $86,315,300 leaving approximate cap space of $123, 684,700.

Time for owners to open the vault.  I truly don’t want to hear that they lost out on someone that Zaidi wants because of money concerns.
