Bargain to Big Bucks

The Tampa Bay Devil Rays were confident enough in Carlos Pena's one great season to sign him to a three-year deal for $24 million.

The contract would be one of the largest given by Stuart Sternberg's ownership group, and among the largest in franchise history. It would keep Pena with the team through 2010, avoiding arbitration this season and next and buying out his first year of free agency.

His Marcel prediction looks good, projecting him to a .391 OBA and 33 home runs. If he puts up three years like that, this contract is a steal.
