It takes a special kind of stubborn to claim that a guy who has a averaged 4 wins/season (which is consistent all-star level performance) is not worth a contract.
Especially when he has 14.9 wins in 3 1/3 seasons for his new team, producing 4.5 wins a year even with a big injury absence in one of them (the first time in 5 years he has missed significant time to injury). Even at the conservative valuation of $6M/win, he has performed level with his average yearly salary.
And considering general inflation, that’s probably too low now.
