Are you sure about this? I just did a search on it and couldn't find it.
Somebody claims that a Fox Sports blog is saying Young will get $6 million per year for two years. He was paid $8 million per year by Detroit for 2005 and 2006.
Man, I hope someone made this all up. Means we are paying TWO vets the amount of money we wanted to give the players that would "take this team into the future". Sheesh. Two vets, by the way, that cover positions we are already are paying 2 OTHER players big money to play.
Was Zim safe at 2nd??
Here is where I slightly disagree ... the money we are paying these guys is veteran money (although I think belliard could've gotten more from the FO). I don't think 6 mil a year over two years is going to get us "someone who will lead us into the future" ... I believe that kind of player is going to cost us much more than that
The problem is, that's STARTER money on this team. Why have 4 guys for 2 positions all w/ starter money?
i've heard of team and player options in a contract .... what is a vesting option?
