The Timbers have the 11th highest payroll in Major League Soccer, per team data from the player's association.
- Forward Jonathan Rodriguez tops the roster with guaranteed compensation of $3.6 million.
- The team currently sits in fourth in the Western Conference, just one spot above arch-rival Seattle.
Yes, but: That pales in comparison to the league's highest paid player, Lionel Messi, who pulls in more then $20 million for Inter Miami, the team with the highest total payroll at more than $46 million.
