ESPN & NY Times Reporting CC to Sign with Yankees

I like it, even though yesterday I was bashing him for not wanting to play in the spot light. I guess I'm funny that way.
The 6 years is a bigger deal than the money. He would have played in California if any of the teams would have added a 6th year...
Right, until he becomes a free agent and then the red sox and yankees can overpay him too. I can't believe I let baseball sucker me in every year.
And Ryan Braun for 6 more years, so unfortunately, baseball has a firm grip until then.
I just saw/heard that. Thats insane, nobody can turn that kind of GUARANTEED money down.
C.C. will eat his way out of the big leagues in less the 4 years. The over/under is at 3.5 years.
Especially now that he has even more money.

I actually think in some ways him being a bigger guy makes him more durable. Sounds messed up, but I'd be inclined to believe it helps him with the way he pitches.
I agree 100% and said that in another thread. He will be pitching longer than Lincecum, I promise you that...
I think when you are young it helps. When you get a little old it really works against you. Look at Rocket Clemons. He was a fat Toad at Boston. He then realized that it did not work any longer. Then he started working out and finished off his career as a work out monster (Juice).
Let's see...
that's about $22.8 million per year.
Let's say he pitches 30 games per year at 100 pitches per game. 3,000 pitches per year.
That's comes out to about $7000 per pitch.
Good work if you can get it.
