T...You may end up glad you only gave McCann an A3. The difference between an A3 and an A5, over the life of the contract, is $33M. So for those last two years, you'd be paying $16.5M per if you gave him an A5. That's superstar money--of this year's free agents, the only ones to draw bids higher than that were Chipper Jones, Webb, Beltran, Delgado and Jeter. Maybe McCann will be in that category four and five years from now--he's certainly among the elite at his position--but I'd be letting someone else take that risk.Steve Kleinnoreply@blogger.com
