January 11, 200521 yr Hampton isn't anywhere close to the 5th best player in the league, and certainly not the best pitcher as the list would imply. :mischief2 He's gotta be the most overpaid there, since he deserves only a shiny nickle.

January 11, 200521 yr But how long are the contracts for each player? 653427[/snapback] The first one is 10.
January 12, 200521 yr nobody, absolutely nobody, is underpaid at $100M 653412[/snapback] Pujols is the best player in the game that doesnt do roids, and he is like 26. Thats a bargain when Derek Jeter gets 189 million.

January 14, 200521 yr Pujols and Helton both deserve every penny they get, other than that, if these guys hit the market right now coming off the years they did when these deals were signed, they'd be looking at $50-$60 million less. Beltran, obviously, excluded.
January 15, 200521 yr I would say Manny has earned what he's getting paid 656101[/snapback] Tell that to Theo and Boston citizens.
January 15, 200521 yr I would say Manny has earned what he's getting paid 656101[/snapback] Tell that to Theo and Boston citizens. 656151[/snapback] every year he's been one of the top three guys in the AL. Last year he was the best and should've won MVP would you guys have won the world series without him? without him, the red sox don't even win 90 and miss out on the playoffs that alone makes him worth it
