even a-rod? im pretty sure the yanks are getting a great freaking deal only paying a-rod 17 mil a year

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

sure, but hanley wasn't signed as a free agent. you can't possibly go comparing values when teams just have the luxury of not paying young guys for what they are worth. when hanley signs as a free agent, then you can go comparing various 'deals' with him as a viable comparison.
