Miguel Cabrera Bout to Make It Rain

ESPN - Two-time American League MVP Miguel Cabrera has agreed to terms with the Detroit Tigerson a new 10-year contract that will pay him $292 million, a baseball source said.

The new contract, which covers the two years remaining on Cabrera's current deal and eight additional years, is expected to become official later this week, the source said.

According to CBSSports.com, which earlier reported Detroit and Cabrera were closing in on an agreement, the new deal also includes two additional vesting options worth $30 million apiece for years 11 and 12 that could bring the total of the deal to $352 million.


50s, 50s, 50s, 100s, 100s, 100s! 

Cue the Fat Joe music and get a load of this rich mother fucker right here. Well about to be rich, pending a physical. But we all know that's just conjecture at this point.

Another veteran, another disastrous contract. No idea why any GM would willingly fork over that amount of money to a player in their early 30's. He's only going to get older. That's how time works. Science. I can safely say the Tigers will be taking a $200 million dollar haircut on this deal. Might as well hand it out to the homeless or set it on fire. And 5 years into the contract Dombrowski 

Sure the guy is a great hitter, but he plays wildly mediocre defense at first base, has the hustle of a Mac truck and in baseball years he might as well be Father Time. 

At the end of the day, you have to be happy for the guy. He plays baseball for a living, was good enough to break a few records and is ultimately getting paid for his hard work. He did what we all want to do or are working towards: swindling your employer into thinking you a worth more than a potential replacement. 

PS

Could you imagine that much scrilla? You don't get outta bed without 50k in your pocket at all times. You'd make Pacman Jones and A-A-Ron Hernandez look like a couple soft serve hardos when you start dropping your bank statements in the club. Like yeah baby over a quarter of a bil, whatchu want?! Cause I'm paid in the shade, with some fly gators on.
