You also need to factor in his portion of the luxury tax. Arod at $17m for the NYY costs more than Arod at $17m for any non-tax team. His true cost is closer to $21m or $22m.
anyways, his deal is far from "great" imo.
his 2007 VORP/cost: 29.3/ $20m
Hanley Ramirez: 24.9/$400k
in 2006 Hanley's VORP was higher than Arods.
now THAT is a great deal
