 April 19, 2008Benching ThomasThe Blue Jays have announced that they are going to bench Frank Thomas, and Jon Hale wonders whether that $10 million option for next year is the reason.Posted by: Dave Studeman More LongoriaSkyking has some an updated take on Evan Longoria's new contract, based on more detailed information. Another nice job.Posted by: Dave Studeman February 09, 2008Rob Neyer just walked byI'm here at the Sloan Sports Conference, and the keynote speech (Wyc Grousbeck, CEO of the Celtics) is about to begin. I'm sitting next to David Pinto of Baseball Musings (he's liveblogging the event). I was at this conference last year, and it was a blast. This year is no different. Last night, I spent a few hours chatting baseball with Joe Bohringer and Helen Zelman of the Arizona Diamondbacks, author of Diamond Dollars Vince Gennaro, Andy Andres of BaseballHQ, Diamond Mind creator and current Red Sox consultant Tom Tippett, and David Pinto. I tried my best to shut up and learn from those smarter than me.I'll update this space if there any interesting tidbits And hey, Rob Neyer just walked by, but no, he wasn't wearing flannel. Posted by: Sal Baxamusa January 17, 2006Soriano Asks for $12 MillionArbitration figures were swapped today, and one of the newest Nationals, Alfonso Soriano, asked for an incredible $12 million. Soriano achieved four (count 'em, 4) Win Shares Above Bench last year. According to Net Win Shares Value, that made him worth $6 million. When you factor in injury risk and the like, his most appropriate salary for 2006 is probably $5 million at best.To stay in the ballgame, the Nationals submitted a bid of $10 millon. In a nutshell, this is why arbitration causes salary inflation. Posted by: Dave Studeman December 10, 2004The Williams ContractIn today's review of free agents, Aaron wondered how Jon Lieber could get $7 million a year for three years and Woody Williams only get $3.5 million for one year, albeit with incentives. Got to admit, I wondered the same thing.I guess the answer is in the incentives. Reportedly, the Williams deal is really worth about $14.5 million over two years. Williams will receive over $100,000 for every start, up to 32 starts, and the option for 2006 will vest automatically if he starts at least 15 games in 2005. He started 31 games this year. That's a nice way to guard against injuries, but $7 million a year seems to be the going rate for an average major league starter -- even one in his late 30's.
