PFSIKH Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Posey receives 9yrs-167million Verlander receives 7yrs-180 million with a vesting option that could make it 8yrs-202 million. Both players are clearly deserving of the money they earned. We shall see if they are burdens like A-Rod is in the latter part of there careers.

CrazyCarl40 Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Posey is pretty young I think, younger than Verlander. Plus they'll keep his body sharper by mixing him in at 1B. Verlander is just one bad injury away, as pitchers are prone to more serious injuries. But yes, both deserve it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a wise decision considering how much the Twins are paying for Mauer. Still a productive guy, but not the power you would suspect at 1B or DH.
