Yesterday the Brewers announced they've signed John Axford to a one-year, $5 million contract to avoid arbitration. It's a significant boost from the slightly more than $500,000 he made last season, but it's only tied for the 27th largest single-season salary in franchise history.
26 Brewers (including those who played partial seasons as a Brewer) have posted an annual salary above $5 million. How many of them can you name in ten minutes?
In the past we've asked people not to post spoilers in the comments, so everyone gets a chance to try out the quiz without having it spoiled from them. I'm scrapping that rule this year and simply warning you that comments may contain spoilers. Also, please use the comments to post your score but remember there's no reason to cheat here, because there aren't any prizes.
If you get all of these, be sure to post your time along with your score in the comments.
If you finish this quiz and you're looking for more Brewer-related Sporcle quizzes, here are this offseason's other thinkers:
