I remember when we dreamed of Hudson or Hughes. But then DM did his thing...

Yeah, there is a little bit of upside here, but man, 4 years. If this were 2/16 or 3/24 I think I'd be fine with it.

This is how we are going to spend the extra TV money?

Duffy and Ventura must be more ready than we all think.

I assume P.J. Walters might be our new cheap long reliever. Nothing else makes sense, he certainly can't pitch in any high leverage situation.

Now all we have to do is fix 2B, 3B and RF, and we are set. Book your October hotel rooms now.

I guess this is what average ML pitching costs. Sad.

Before today, the rumor was that Vargas was seeking at least 3 years. He must have gotten multiple 3-year offers, and we were the only ones willing to go 4 to "win" the bidding war.

Their mistake is calling this a major announcement. This contact isn't any crazier than Guthrie or Meche's contract. Way to oversell themselves. Now most of the fan base is upset.
Although Jason Vargas is #1 trending thing on Twitter in the US. So there's that. |

Saved about 4 million from Santana's salary last year I think.

All I know it that this deal had better not preclude us from signing a big bat.

Yeah, there's really no reason not to get a bat now. We didn't spend very much on pitching, I figured it would take 10 or 11 per year to get Hughes. If we get a power-hitting RF, I'll still be annoyed by the 4th year, but it'll be OK.

It has for the last 6-7 years... at least for established middle rotation guys. Guys like Marquis and Suppan used to make this much, or more. Look at Santana... he's asking for $112 million.
