I could see him getting 6 years at maybe 22 a year and the Reds should stay away if it takes that much. The Reds should top out at 4 years at 15 a year. Maybe throw in a bobble head giveaway every year to stroke his ego.

I think that if that's what the Reds offer him, he and his agent will scoff, and off to market he goes.  Dude is definitely ego driven, as evidenced by his quote in LA paper, stating that he "would have worked harder, had he been paid more".

The guy has the talent, he now wants the money to reflect it.  LA didn't pawn him off on Cincinnati without a reason..
