NPB Team Payrolls?

Discussion in the Ask the Commish forum
NPB Team Payrolls?
Just out of curiosity, is there a list of what each NPB team's payroll is? I know MLB team's payroll are public information. I wanted to see if there are any teams who are performing well or under performing despite their spending habits.

Here are salaries broken down by team as of the beginning of the season. Players that signed after mid-March are not included for the most part (and unfortunately, they tend to be expensive players). Still, you can get the basic trend from this:
+--------+------+---------+---------+-------+
| League | Team | Players | Sum* | Avg** |
+--------+------+---------+---------+-------+
| CL | YG | 70 | 42.3130 | 6,045 |
| CL | CD | 71 | 40.5520 | 5,712 |
| PL | FSH | 70 | 34.9710 | 4,996 |
| CL | HT | 69 | 34.5520 | 5,008 |
| PL | CLM | 66 | 30.1350 | 4,566 |
| PL | SL | 66 | 29.7530 | 4,508 |
| CL | TYS | 69 | 28.6060 | 4,146 |
| PL | OBs | 70 | 25.9820 | 3,712 |
| PL | HNHF | 66 | 25.9760 | 3,936 |
| CL | YBS | 63 | 23.5487 | 3,738 |
| PL | TRGE | 68 | 19.4640 | 2,862 |
| CL | HC | 68 | 17.4650 | 2,568 |
+--------+------+---------+---------+-------+

About

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
