Default Re: looks like Santana is gone next season

I wonder what the sweat spot is for a higher annual but shorter long-term contract to make it +EV for both the team and Johan. Like if we estimate the chances of Johan getting injured / performing poorly enough that he no longer gets another huge long-term contract after those four years, and then we figure out how much the highest contract offer for him next season is, and then we add however much annually we need to make him accept it... Bleh.

I guess a simpler question would be that, on average, how much more $$ on annual basis is needed to make a player pass up more years but less money.
