This guy is a moron. He falls off a dirt bike and ends up on the DL until August if he returns at all this year. My question for you all is would u pay him if u didn't have to? I say hell no. Guaranteed contracts are one of the worst things about professional sports.

Yes and you have to evaluate his WAR value over the duration of his deal. 2013-now he has accumulated 17.8 war. At the AVG 8 mil per WAR point he is worth $142.4 mil to date.

He was paid 35 mil over his deal.

SF will pick up his option with a smile.
