Connolly rates Chen returning to the Orioles at 1 out of 10

[El Gordo]

When Rich Hill gets 6M not surprised Chen gets 20M.

Chen is insisting on a five year deal. Industry reports are an AAV of 20 million? Wow! Dan Duquette was a genius!

I don't believe Chen will get $100 mm. I predicted 5/$80 mm when the offseason started, and I'm sticking to it.

That sounds right to me as well.

Frankly, I hope he gets the #100 million. Since the Orioles are surely not in on him, the more another team spends, the better, as far as I'm concerned.

Shame Chen didn't lay odds on Connolly returning.

Chen, Smardzja, Leake, Gallardo, all priced within a M or 2 AAV. Which would you take? I'd take Leake to keep the pick, or Kazmir for less years and money.
