hudson signs with braves

[raiders_umpire]

Braves signed RHP Tim Hudson to a four-year, $47 million contract extension through 2009 with a mutual option for 2010.
Hudson will still make $6.75 million this year. His contract calls for a $10 million signing bonus and salaries of $4 million in 2006, $6 million in 2007 and $13 million each in 2008 and 2009. The option year is worth $12 million and contains a $1 million buyout. Hudson is something of a long-term health risk, but this is a great signing for the Braves. As the top free agent pitcher available, Hudson would have command in excess of $13 million per year next winter. Mar. 1 - 1:32 pm et

looks like a great and cheap signing for the braves.....
