It's an interpretation based on your claiming he's some kind of Godsend, which he is not. What's lost is that you think I'm only looking at stats. Sure, I don't give a shit about WAR (a pro is better than a scrub off the street - yay!).

But based on what I have watched him do on the field, combined with his numbers (since they do still matter, despite what you might think) he is not a guy who should get that much money.

It's not that hard to get. You think he's great and worth ~$200mil. I think he's just good and worth less. That's it.
