The Hypothetical Danks Extension

Cot's Contracts. It exists.
Cheat tasked me with figuring out what Danks' extension, if any, would probably look like. Whatever the terms reportedly agreed to on Tuesday for the 2010 season, it's unlikely that either side was very far away. Obviously the sticking points come farther into the uncertain future. Given that, I searched Cot's Contracts for reasonable points of comparison.
1) I looked for contracts signed by starting pitchers that gave the team control through their arbitration years and into free agency signed after the '06 season, with Brandon Webb a convenient anomaly (he was right next to Dan Haren on Cot's).
2) Club options are not denoted, but it's almost one per contract. Presumably, there's a decent chance Danks' hypothetical extension would contain a club option.
3) Felix's contract has been estimated using Tango's .4/.6/.8 rule of thumb.*
4) Just to refresh, after 3 years of service with the major league club, a player becomes arbitration eligible. After he has completed 6 years of service and is no longer under contract, he becomes a free agent. Danks will begin the first of his arb-eligible seasons in 2010.
| Player | Yr Signed | Arb 1 | Arb 2 | Arb 3 | FA | FA |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jon Lester | '09 | 3.75 | 5.75 | 7.625 | 11.625 | 13 |
| Gavin Floyd | '09 | 2.75 | 5 | 7 | 9.5 | |
| Josh Johnson | '10 | 3.75 | 7.75 | 13.75 | 13.75 | |
| Felix Hernandez | '10 | 11 | 14 | 18 | 18 | |
| Zack Greinke | '09 | 3.75 | 7.25 | 13.5 | 13.5 | |
| Scott Baker | '09 | 3 | 5 | 6.5 | 9.25 | |
| James Shields | '08 | 2.5 | 4.25 | 7 | 9 | 12 |
| Scott Kazmir | '09 | 6 | 8 | 12 | 13.5 | |
| Adam Wainwright | '08 | 2.6 | 4.65 | 6.5 | 9 | 12 |
| Dan Haren | '09 | 7.5 | 8.25 | 12.75 | 12.75 | |
| Brandon Webb | '06 | 4.5 | 5.5 | 6.5 | ||
| Matt Cain | '07 | 2.65 | 4.25 | 6.25 | ||
| Fausto Carmona | '08 | 4.9 | 6.1 | 7 | 9 | |
| Chris Young | '07 | 2.5 | 4.5 | 6.25 | 8.5 | |
| Cole Hamels | '09 | 6.65 | 9.5 | |||
| Paul Maholm | '09 | 2 | 4.5 | 5.75 | 9.75 | |
| Jeff Francis | '07 | 2.75 | 3.75 | 5.75 | 7 | |
| Average | 3.38 | 5.57 | 7.34 | 10.90 | 13.56 | |
So we'd expect Danks to get something like 4 years for $26-30MM and a club option for $12-14MM in 2014. Averaging CHONE and Fangraphs, Danks' has been worth 4.75 WAR per season over the last two. If we expect 3.5 to 4.5 wins per full season pitched under the hypothetical contract, Kenny would pay $1.75MM per win. That's compared to about $4MM on the open market. Even if Danks misses a season entirely, that only raises Kenny's rate to $2.33MM per. It makes me wonder if players shouldn't be buying insurance to help them get to free agency.
*.4/.6/.8 refers to the percent of the value of the contract they'd receive for that season on the open market for the 1st/2nd/3rd years of arbitration. Felix's contract buys out the last two years of arb and three FA years, for a total of $80MM. So the estimate looks like .6x + .8x + x + x + x = 80. His open market value is about $18MM/year, which makes those two years of arb worth ~ $25MM. It also means that the CBA is forcing him to leave about $11MM on the table.

The only good reason to not have Thome signed yet....
is because Kenny’s waiting on Damon. His price is coming down by the hour, and he should be all over that situation.
Steve Goldman over at Baseball Prospectus
says it’s the Twinks and Tigers who will be battling it out foe Central Division honors….no mention of the Sox.
I'm not sure about that...
however, I do think the Tigers, upon further investigation, will be a potential contender. Earlier I had sort of discounted them.
Well that's rather silly
I doubt even BP’s own projection system will back that up. The Tigers need several things to go right as of now.

It was just a lazy response.
The Jackson trade was fine. I am a big fan of Scherzer and like him better anyway. But yes Granderson is gone as is Planco. They have several holes. Its implication is that Verlander, Scherzer and Porcello CAN be a scary trio. Duh So what. Peavy, Buerhle, Danks and Floyd IS a scary foursome. As I said I doubt their projection system backs him up.

their projection system is often wildly off regarding the white sox. a bit of art, not all science.

2010 White Sox: Benching our way to the playoffs
by Scotty Ballgame on Jan 20, 2010 6:53 PM CST up reply actions
competitive advantage?
teams with bigger markets get bigger returns every additional game won. JR said all they try to do is break even, so the more revenue per win the Sox receive than some other team, the more that can be spent to gain that additional win.
2010 White Sox: Benching our way to the playoffs.
So it translates to more payroll? I'm not sure I follow...
Detroit has outspent the Sox the last couple years and the Twins may be within 10 mil of the Sox this year.
by Daniel Berlyn on Jan 20, 2010 7:31 PM CST up reply actions
tigers have outspent the sox overall since 2005.
and considering their payroll will be about $25M higher in 2010, only going to increase that gap.
the only real advantage ive seen for the tigers
is the fact that they are willing to sign high priced draft picks, getting guys say 26th in the draft when he was a top 5 talent, then having a surplus of arms to trade for Cabrera.
"I think that's a lot of horse muffins." - Bob Feller
Yeah, but according to Colin they don't have the biggest "market."
I’m not sure what I’m missing. Is it the difference in the philosophy of the owners that’s making the drastic payroll difference?

I'm assuming by "break even" that JR is saying
all revenues received will go to the team. If your market is bigger, then your revenues are larger than your opponent at a given number of wins. There’s a lot more to it that just that though:

the claim is wonderful.
equating market with revenue, which is what you’re using it for, is not so wonderful.

True encounter with a vegan:
While camping on the peninsula last year, I noticed three 20-something lads camped somewhat close to me.
They seemed clueless about the whole camping process.
They had giant logs for firewood, and the only thing they brought to chop it, was a shitty hatchet from REI.
So, after getting a good laugh out of watching the one guy go after a huge log with a little hatchet, being nice and well-equipped and experienced campers, we gave them our ax to use.
The guy of the three who decided he was up to the chopping task, happened to have a tattoo down his shin – BIG BLACK BLOCK LETTERS, ALL CAPS – from his knee to his ankle, that read: VEGAN.
The fucker put his first piece of wood on a rock, took a hearty swing of the ax, and slammed the ax against the rock. Completely missed the wood and ruined our blade.
Stupid vegan.
These assholes would be the first to die if they ever had to survive outside of their hipster city comforts.
And you know what?

Not a 99 year old man or her dog she’s had since a child.
Not even a questionable human, possible cyborg and a dog.
Just a random person, and a random dog.
It was then I realized vegans can’t be trusted.

Humans are omnivores.
If you cannot eat the flesh of something then you are not an omnivore.
Therefore, Vegans are not Human.
It is fitting and proper that you cannot trust a vegan.

as if some noodle-armed sprout eater could save me from falling off a cliff anyway
the good news is that vegans usually are too horrifically boring (and listen to too much godawful coffee shop music) to get close enough to develop any level of trust in the first place.

Intense. Look out for vegans in dark alleys or on cliff ledges.

The more I read that vegan post the funnier it gets
How do you come out with a first post like that? Who are you really?

Mike murphey swears that
Tony Larussa rents out a private section at a particular steakhouse, then proceeds to eat a 22 oz. Steak. Don’t know if it’s true but pretty funny. Poser.

"White Sox Announce Active Roster Reduction to 24"
White Sox General Manager Kenny Williams told the media today that, due to the loss of 7-11’s sponsorship of the 7:11 game time, the White Sox will reduce their active roster to 24.
“The sponsorship was for $500,000,” said Williams. “That’s a lot of money and we were counting on it. Unfortunately, that means we will have to cut the payroll by a commensurate amount. Ozzie [Guillen] will simply have to make due with a six man bullpen.”

I know plenty of white chicks who would probably fuck T and aren't trailer trash.
Trashy perhaps, but I don’t even know much what he looks like and neither do they, but that’s not the defining factor here.

PR.
Wrigley Field is a postage stamp shithole. It reeks of piss worse than R. Kelly’s underage girlfriend. It’s falling apart faster than Amy Winehouse. Their fans are denial-addled jagoffs of lowest stripe.
Steveski is my new mortal hero.
