Unless you believe that the Gio Cap outlives Giordano himself? Or that the cap refers to the AAV, and not actual salary, which could be argued but I do not believe that to be that case... it wouldn't make sense.
You can structure it however you like I was referring to the AAV anyways. But yeah people thinking that he’ll sign for anything less then a 7 AAV are out to lunch. He could have a career ending injury at any point. It would be irresponsible of him to not get as much garaunteed dollars as he can for as long as he can. It’s very easy for us as fans to wish guys sign cheap contracts to help the teams and vilify players who go for the big dollars but these are guys who have no idea when the music is going to stop for them. I say go out and get your money!
