What number are you thinking, Craig? $4 base. $1 for all-star, $2 for top-5 MVP. $1 each at the 250, 350, 450, and 550 PA thresholds. Cub risk: $4 out the window. Nomar risk: Short of award-level play, max contract is "only" $8 even if he's healthy enough for 550 PA. Something like that. Nomar gets an opportunity and some money for sure. If Nomar is healthy enough to play a lot, I think $8 contract is perhaps pretty reasonable. I'm not that keen on going much beyond that, short of awards-based incentives. Even if he's healthy enough to play, I'm not sure that Nomar is really going to be able to play defense or hit at beyond the place where $8-9 would be reasonable pay. I can't guess what the market for him would be like. I'd be willing to give larger incentives for awards-based stuff. unless i'm adding wrong, that could end up being $11-12. if healthy, he's got a great shot at being an all-star on name alone. i think neifi has quite a bit of value as a utility man, but that means we must have healthy starters everywhere to prevent dusty starting him. it'll be interesting to see who is playing CF and 2B next year, along with SS.
