50 is a bargain for a good starting pitcher these days. Yanks shoulda offered 60 considering how their rotation is looking so far this year

I am not thrilled with their Jap pitcher. He looks terrible and throws the ball up in the zone. Real hitters will destroy that and they have.

It's crazy to get a good pitcher these days. I believe the #s for the Salary don't include that $50MIL either.
