Wow. At that price, Detroit is welcome to him. Glad it's finally over.

[SammyBirdland]

The ridiculousness of that contract has successfully eased the blow.

Rosenthal is saying it is 214 million. Talk about a roll of the dice in Detroit.

Hahahahahahaha

[Bluerocksfan]

did not see that one coming

Boras played this out well. Nats were never going to go that many years.

Crazy contract! It's funny that most of us thought his market was soft as his belly, but then this! At least we don't have to have some big debate about topping what he got. At least I hope not.

[nevadaO]

Most of us knew that there was close to (if not) 0% chance he would come here. I am not saying I wouldn't have wanted him, but certainly not at that ridiculous contract.

I am glad this is over.

[CrimsonTribe]

Yeah, that's totally crazypants.

[canonfaz]

No way we should have come close to that. I'm amazed!

[SammyBirdland]

If Jayson Werth gets 7 years, and Prince gets 9 years...we're going to be driving flying cars and wearing silver jumpsuits by the end of Joey Votto's next contract.

Cabrera and Fielder at 3 and 4. Wow.
