    A pitcher no matter how good is still only going to play every 4 or 5 days and even then, for the most part, not even play the whole game.
    $35 MILLION a year for basically a part time player. Very seldom do they contribute on the offensive side of things and they are not going to win the game every time they pitch.
    So is there a point where a team is just flushing money away?
    Being a Braves fan I don`t really care if the Nats piss away years of payroll that part of that $245 million could be invested elsewhere.
    Rock on Nats! Spend away!

    Evidently the breaking point is still climbing.

    "When you consider that the Yankees' inability to translate regular-season dominance into a pennant over the past three years is largely a product of running into the Astros in October, that simple observation tells you why Brian Cashman and the Steinbrenners were willing to go all-in on Cole with a nine-year, $324 million contract that is the richest ever given to a pitcher."

    That`s 36/year for 9 years! WTH!
