Maybe it's just me, but I think this is the kind of thing we need to avoid doing. I would have liked to have had Hunter as much as the next guy, but I think there's a good chance his production starts to decline towards the end of that contract. Sign guys while they in their mid to late 20's, while they are ascending, not decending in terms of production.
