March 28, 201412 yr He could have gotten that the first time, me thinks. Richest player of all time? His two deals almost equal $500 Mill, and A-Rod cut his first deal short to get the second deal. Who is the higher grossing player? Certainly deserved, but I hate to say, even Miggy won't live up to the end of this deal.
March 28, 201412 yr Holy s***. I second this motion.... Not taking anything away from Miggy...but I wasn't a fan of when the term "A-rod money" was thrown around when he signed the 10-year 275M contract and now this surpasses it....wow people especially baseball players and owners just have lost the knowledge of what real money is.....
March 28, 201412 yr I read somewhere that he will earn $49,423 per AB over the next decade. The median annual income of a household in Michigan: $48,471.
March 29, 201412 yr He'll be 31 in April. Detroit is on the hook to pay him about 30 mill/yr when he's 35. And 36. And 37. And 38. And 39. And 40. The last 6 years may not turn out so well. But, you never know, by the time he's pushing 40, with a little inflation and the really good guys priced at 35-40/year he may be a bargain at 30.
March 29, 201412 yr Miggy could hit even if he needed a walker to get to 1st base as long as he can see the ball, they will still have problems getting a fastball by him when he is 60
