I'd give Utley Beltre's contract
Except he’s already like 30 right?
http://seattlesportsmaniac.blogspot.com

and Utley is signed through 2013 already
by Matthew on May 14, 2008 1:30 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I'd give Utley 15-17 million per year over 4 years or so.
He’s really really good.

Maybe if he were a few years younger?

Chase Utley is a 29 year old good defensive 2B with four consecutive .300+ EqA seasons

Fair enough. I don't know much about the aging curves for 2B so I have no idea how long he can maintain.

He has an awful long way to decline before he's bad
by Jeff on May 14, 2008 1:38 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
So given the length of his contract
how many, if any, years will he be overpaid? And is that acceptable?
I’ve wondered about this for a while. There seems to be a consensus (in the stat community) that if you are going to overpay, overpay for the superstar talents. Another consensus is that you should try to keep the length of contracts short, especially for pitchers. But how much “overpaying” is ok when it comes to length of a contract?
by GhettoBear04 on May 14, 2008 1:41 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I don't think there's any set equation
if the player fits, he fits. So, for instance, were Utley a free agent, it would make more sense for, say, Tampa Bay to give him a massive contract than for Pittsburgh to do the same, because the upside for the Rays would stand a pretty good chance of making the eventual overpayment worthwhile.

To follow up
You should take player-park factors into account in that those factors contribute to a player’s contributions, which is the only thing that matters when judging a contract. You don’t say a contract is more or less fair based on a player’s skills regardless of park factors, because those park factors are unavoidable in their effect on his performance.

but w/o Boone how much worse are we 2001-3?
by Matthew on May 14, 2008 1:40 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Agreed
In terms of impact, Boone was huge. In terms of raw production, Beltre ranks higher.

Boone was better over those three years than Beltre has been by an insane margin

No.
Boone: 153 OPS+ in Safeco, 2B defense
A-Rod: 160 OPS+ in Arlington, SS defense
I know park factors are part of OPS+ but I’m not completely sold that OPS+ completely removes the bias for players who play in extreme parks.

by Jeff on May 14, 2008 1:36 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
basically
If you have two equal hitters except one is RH and the other is LH, and give them equal contracts to play at Safeco, the left-handed contract is a better value
by vkut79 on May 14, 2008 1:39 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
This doesn't change the fact that Beltre has been good
by Jeff on May 14, 2008 1:39 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I'm just responding to a specific point about park effect and contract evaluation
This is not specifically related to whether or not Beltre’s contract is worth it.
by vkut79 on May 14, 2008 1:41 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
So you should evaluate a player's contract regardless of how a park
specifically affects him individually.
by vkut79 on May 14, 2008 1:42 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Which you are doing wrong if you don't think he's worth it
by Graham on May 14, 2008 1:43 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I'm not an expert on player value to begin with
I thought 13 million was too much, I could very well be wrong on that.
by vkut79 on May 14, 2008 1:46 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
See but what you're misunderstanding is this.
If Beltre hits .270/.320/.480 with gold glove defense in Safeco, and .290/.340/.500 anywhere else, the park does take away from his numbers. However, it takes away from the numbers of EVERYONE who plays in Safeco, therefore a .270/.320/.480 line in Safeco is just as valuable as a .290/.340/.500 anywhere else.

Because the contract's value is what it is.
It doesn’t change simply because the organization selected a player that poorly fit their ballpark.
by vkut79 on May 14, 2008 1:44 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
But the contract is just as valuable considering the lower line in Safeco is just as good as a neutral line in a neutral park.

See fuck those "statistics"
Our defense is awesome. We’ll show up on webgems, the true qualification of a good defense.

Isn't that your goal?
You’re doing it wrong by not doing it wrong!

I've now burnt 2 hours watching this Mariner game instead of doing Math homework...

At least we don't have Zito's contract.

You know it's okay to pinch hit for Cairo in this situation.
Just saying.

they have no one left on the bench...
vidro apparently is too hurt to play

At least you only invested 3 hours in that shit
I gave up work hours drove across the state and back for that bullshit.

just woke up..
was this an exciting 3-3 game, or the more likely painful type?
although I did wake up to catch that Cairo double play, thought I was in the twilight zone or something

If you still feel things when watching the mariners
you haven’t been paying attention. So that being said, it was a [NUMB] game.

For some odd reason, I still get excited/pissed off watching this team
Although my heart isn’t all the way in it. That 13-12 game on Monday evoked emotion (or shock) I didn’t know I had left for the M’s. Watching a doomed team is comforting, somehow.

Having a debate with my brother...
Who is the Mariners best hitter?
At least we don't have Zito's contract.
by ColeFitz on May 14, 2008 2:01 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Probably Cairo
either him or Sexson
by seattlebruin on May 14, 2008 2:02 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I say Raul
then Beltre

by Eyebrows on May 14, 2008 2:02 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
depends...
Ichiro probably. But Beltre or Ibanez for power
