He seemed a cinch to do a 3/2/2/2/1/0 war run. So 10 wins @8M = $80M value as a certainty, with upside (he did 4.1 his walk year).
It’s easy to armchair QB this one but holy hell his first 2 years in SD have been shockingly bad.

Yeah, that was where I was at.
Would have ended up similar to the Gordon deal - looked like great value at the time, ended up being underwater in a hurry.
