I value offense more than some it would appear. I think Edwin is a top 10 bat in the AL and expect him to be in that top 10 for the next 4 years. I would pay him 17 mil per year for 4 years in a heart beat. I also have no problem with Rogers increasing payroll, but some don't want poor rogers to spend the revenue generated by a winning team. I would hope they sign at least one of Edwin or Jose. Obviously the team can't give in to ridiculous demands, but if a deal can be struck and you have to pay a bit more than you might want to I would do it. If the dollars are significantly higher, you would have to walk. I hope a reasonable deal can be struck with one of these players.
