I don't know for 13 years, however I am in the camp of pay the man. It is so hard to get a player that has this skill base at this age. We need a piece to build around and we have no one in the organization that fits that mold other than Vlad. Money is not Rogers issue so I don't worry about the total salary commitments as much as some may. I would just like to pay him more early and have the per year amount decrease as he gets older. That way when he struggles as a 35-36 YO he can be dumped without as much of an impact on the roster. I don't see him playing to 40.
