Sheets new contract

[Tavish]

You forgot the best contract ever.

Darren Dreifort 2005 salary $11.5 million. Quite the bargain.

A very good contract, and probably in the top 5. But the Santana contract is easily the best contract ever.

Indians signed first baseman-designated hitter Travis Hafner to a three-year, $7 million contract with a club option for 2008.
Hafner gets $500,000 this season (a $122,600 raise), $2.5 million next year and $3.75 million in 2007. Cleveland has a $4.75 million option for 2008 with a $250,000 buyout. This is another very good signing for GM Mark Shapiro. Hafner should have easily eclipsed $6.25 million in arbitration in 2006 and '07. Also, the Indians will control Hafner's rights for 2008 whether they exercise the option or not.

Glad to see a pitcher not selling out.. doesn't he have 1-2 years of arbitration still, so this deal isn't THAT spectacular, correct?
