1 yr, $5M, incentives could push the deal to $9M.

So much for the Orioles -or any other team- capitalizing on this low risk/high reward opportunity.

I hadn't realized Sizemore was already 29 years old. Seems like he just came into the league, those injuries really did slow down a growing star career.

Yeah, saw this coming. At least he stayed put. Would've been a great pick-up for the O's. At least he didn't end up in pin stripes.

I wish him the best of luck. The Indians desereve a winner.

1/5 with escalators to 1/9 is pretty fair. We would have had to beat it, and I don't see a huge amount of value there.
