I really like this type of contract, love the option years on the backend. Toronto has done very well over the last 6 months.

I think Adam Lind might be the BEST current player in MLB that i've never heard of. .900+ OPS with 35 HRs, if he keeps that up, this is steal of the Ryan Braun variety. Hopefully he doesn't pull a Vernon Wells or Alex Rios or a Billy "Can Pitch" Hall
