Every year the two teams that make it to the World Series receive a certain amount from the postseason pool which the Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers player quite a bit on this year.
The percentage that the Blue Jays would be receiving from the postseason pool was disclosed at the beginning of November which is 24%, while the Dodgers got 36%.

The total for the postseason pool ended up being $128.2 million for 2025 which was a bit down from last year which set a record at $129.1 million.
The reason for the drop off seems to be in direct correlation with the ballpark capacity and the average cost per ticket which seems to be cheaper in Toronto than it was in New York last season.

The players pool total just shy of last year's record $129m.
This is quite a large sum for these players, especially the young ones like Trey Yesavage who yearly salary was $57,000 last season.
