If Price for $31 mil/year was crazy, this is ludicrous!!! I understand that it is an arms race in MLB, but GM's, please stop doing this to yourselves!!!!
Just as a point of reference, I believe that the Phillies still have time left on Cliff Lee's contract. And he hasn't pitched in two years.
I certainly don't blame the players either. Lord know if I had the kind of money thrown at me that they are, I'd certainly take it.
It's just these long term, high price contracts rarely pay off for the team in the long run. Then again if the top salaries did not rise due to competition between the owners, the players union may cry "collusion".
