Looks like the Brew Crew got him at a steal. There goes an option for 2B next year. Kelly Johnson, anyone?

Weeks got paid. Good for him! But I think a little too much. However these are the contracts now a days.

I agree.....he is worth the money in relation to the size of the contracts out there. In reality all of these guys are overpaid. If they didn't demand these huge contracts ticket prices would be reasonable and more ballparks would be packed with more fans. Seriously, how do these guys spend the amount of money they make in their lifetime?

Buy 20M mansions, with 10M in morgage a month. JK.. But you're right, what do they do. They can do so much but I doubt they do all I'm thinking of.
