And 5.8M in between those years. If you think he's the guy from 2013 and 2015 going forward, it will probably work out OK based on his production in the early years of the contract. But I'm not sure I buy him completely as that yet.
Also, who else was going to give him that contract? I'm not sure anybody else both needed a 1B and had that kind of money to spend.
