As usual, the MLS Players Union released an update to the players salaries for the season. FC Dallas has made a couple changes to their roster since the first salary report earlier this season.
From the quick glance, there are some interesting nuggets to take from this update.
| Player Name | Base Salary | Total Compensation |
| Mauro Diaz | $312,000 | $398,000 |
| Danny Garcia | $48,000 | $64,000 |
| Erick | $84,000 | $85,875 |
First up, there is Diaz. Holy cow. That is a pretty big number for a young player but one we expected. Early reports indicated that Diaz could be a Young Designated Player but when the signing was announced there was no indication that he was a DP for the club. So from this news, it sounds like the club was able to pay down his salary a little bit to keep him away from being a DP.
Erick's numbers are about what I expected. Maybe slightly higher than one would have wanted for a guy that has been banged up since he got here. But I'm willing to change my mind when I see him actually play for the club, especially if he does well.
Garcia's numbers are what you'd expect for a Homegrown player too. Though his total compensation is actually better than four other Homegrown players on the team.
