    No one will pay that; and if they do, they're as stupid as the Washington Nationals when they signed Werthless.

    At the most I'd go 6/138 for Fielder. But that still seems too high.

    Someone will pay it because there wouldn't be an example of a Werth deal if someone hadn't stupidly parted with their money in Washington.

    Admittedly, I hate this porcine malcontent more than most people...but if he gets 25 million dollars a year for what he brings to a BB field, then it will take me a long time to get over the intense nausea.
    You be thinkin' correctly.

    What would Borasssss have wanted for Kemp if he was representing him as a free agent if he wants this much for Fielder?

    Depending on annual inflation percent.

    At 2%, it would be worth 29.2 Million
    At 3%, it would be worth 27.6 Million
    At 4%, it would be worth 25.5 Million
    At 5%, it would be worth 23.6 Million

    Click my avatar and watch him run!

    Why is this deal not official yet? I'm getting a little worried.​

    maybe so new ownership can announce it? i wish.
    you know spank wants the credit so it really doesn't make sense unless the bk court is holding it up.

    Contract details:

    dylanohernandez Dylan Hernandez
    Matt Kemp will earn $10MM in 2012, $20MM in 2013, $21MM/yr from 2014-2015, and $21.5MM/yr from 2016-2019. $2MM signing bonus.
    2 million of the 10 million in 2012 is deferred
    That's pretty hilarious, and depressing.

    A cool paragraph from MSTI:

    Besides, though there’s no arguing the shocking dollar amounts here, this isn’t likely to be the biggest or even the second-biggest contract signing of the offseason. Albert Pujols could get north of $200m, and Prince Fielder is still targeting Ryan Howard‘s $25m/year as his baseline. Once we see where those land, ~$20m/year for a player who is neither over 30 (like Pujols), terrifyingly built (like Fielder), or tethered to first base (like both) could seem almost like a bargain.
