   is waaaaaaaaaay less than originally reported now.  After all he's going to be   
   getting some of this money over 20 years from now.   
      
   Right now, the real  value of the contract is probably more like 280-300   
   million dollars total than 700 million.   
      
   This isn't even close to the richest contract in mlb history.   
      
   The first arod deal with the rangers still holds that distinction(in terms of   
   real money).  This isn't even close to that.
