I think that fast dogs makes a good point. If you are out of the race at midseason, I would do this deal.
As it stands now, if you think that your team has a chance to win the league in 2010, then you obviously do not make the deal. If your team is in rebuilding mode, then I would look for a little bit better deal than this if you are going to do it before the season. If the guy you are dealing with wants to have Lincecum for the whole season, he needs to pay a premium, because as fast dogs said, at midseason the teams looking to upgrade to win now will all be looking to make a deal, and the market for Lincecum will be competitive.
