Another article said it was worth 16mil for the 1yr, but it was not confirmed.

Is he still worth that kinda money?

Can't wait to light this guy up

How does AJ Burnett keep fleecing teams into overpaying for his mediocrity? How in the blue hell is he worth the same salary as Hiroki Kuroda?

Wait... Ruben Amaro. Nevermind.

He was never worth that kind of money.

He had a pretty good year last year but it might still be a little steep. But then what contract isn't nowadays?

The Phillies continue to confuse me with their team...they are neither building or tearing down their team...the worst thing a team can be doing is neither going up or down

 

[steveringo]

It is $16 million of their money. Perhaps they needed to give more for the one year...

He was ok last year, and Philly needs SP....

Did they overpay? Certainly.

Can they afford it? Apparently.

Will it be worth it?

He's being paid the same as Hiroki Kuroda. Kuroda's last two seasons have been better than any season Burnett has ever had.

Hmm. Don't tell the Yankees. Are they underpaying Kuroda?

What exactly are you basing this on? Their last two season on the whole are pretty comparable.
