They're saying 5 yrs $75 million per. Not sure I'm liking this very much.

Bit of a weak market so I think it's an overpayment but it's not a bad move for Atlanta. I know he's 3 years younger than Hamilton but it makes me wonder what type of contract he will get. I'm thinking 5-6 years $18 million per.
According to John Morosi the Braves are going after Justin Upton too.
The snag in the deal seems to be this SS named Simmons or Simpson or something.
Nats traded for Denard Span who has 3 years left on his deal, and costs a shit ton less. He doesn't have Upton's power, but he strikes out half as much, walks at about the ame rate, and IMO is better defensively by a little bit. They really are almost identical in overall play but Span is coming at a discount. I still don't think the Nats will lead off with Span, FWIW.
That's a bad contract. They'll regret that.

Thoughts on Span trade?

Hamilton may get 5-6 yrs, but my guess is 4. And he'll get 20m/yr or more.
