mystikol87 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Damn, that's a ton of money. Does Anibal get $15MM per if Hamels gets $24MM per? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dim Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 That's a huge contract. I believe only Sabathia has ever been paid more in terms of pitchers contracts. This is definitely overpaying the guy. If I'm a Phillies fan, I would've rather traded Hamels for a huge return than to give him this kind of a poison pill deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Love Me Some Fish Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Hamels will be the 4th Phillie to make 20+ mil annually on the team right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystikol87 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Hamels will be the 4th Phillie to make 20+ mil annually on the team right now. Yeah, it seems terrible, right? They have so many massive contracts, some of which look pretty bad right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 As terrible as the Marlins have been, thanks to the Phillies they're still not last in the division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanofthefish Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 That's a lot of money for a pitcher that has never won more than 15 games in a season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 And a pain in the Marlins side for years to come? Except we're 3-0 against Hamels this year and usually do decent against him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall stats, I wouldn't say he's worth anywhere near $144,000,000 over 6 years, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is pretty hard to justify that type of contract, but the Phils probably felt they had to do something since teams like the Dodgers would likely match or exceed this kind of deal in free agency. It's pretty much the market dictating what they were going to sign him to I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnellders Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 11-1 against everyone else this year 0-3 against the Marlins this year, 6-10 lifetime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canada-marlin24 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Yea that's overpaying if Ive ever seen it. Way too much for a pitcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
