Both are 4 years too long. Honestly he is probably worth 25 mill a year for the next 3 or 4 years, it is the 2nd half of these contracts that get ugly. Think the Yankees want to pay A Rod 30 million this year? Or 21 million in 2016!!

Hopefully for Tiger fans Leyland doesnt actually let Cabrera play 3rd and makes him DH.

So in 5 years what do you think a 28 year old 1st baseman who hits 300 38 120 will demand?

If the kid is still performing in year 5 at this level he will be considered a bargin. It's alot to give a guy with a weigth issue, the guy is an athlete so itsnot like he is Rick Reuschel or Mickey Lolich
