Haven't followed baseball in a minute, so i'm looking up this dude expecting to see some young Pujols/Griffey/A-Rod/Manny numbers but....

He's never hit .300 avg...never hit atleast 40 hrs...never had a 110 rbi season, but he's getting the richest contract in the sport's history. :mindblown:

Lol @ this new era of baseball where .288/37/105 are considered "monster" numbers.

I honestly wouldn't have paid him that money myself... But he's young, improving, and is a physical freak.


That being said I think the owner signed him to this contract so the value of the team is higher when he sells

That's 325 million dollars...GUARANTEED...

Think about that...to see that money all he got to do is...wake up...:wow:

And on top of that this dude got the option to opt out halfway through the contract and re-up for MORE MONEY:wow:

Is there anybody on planet earth winning more than this dude now:mjcry:

From having his face nearly taken off by a pitch to 300 + million:mjcry:

hes only 25, his highest was 37 homers in only 145 games, his walk rate is improving and hes added some speed to his game last year (although might be an aberration)

no one in baseball s really worth these kinda numbers nowadays imo (prime Barry aint walkin through that door :sadcam:) but your analysis is weak.

In this market and this climate, he's definitely worth $27M a year. Now, he probably won't be worth $30M when he's 34-35-36....but right now, he's definitely worth it. Victor Martinez just got $17M a year. Russel martin got $16M+.
