1 WAR is generally valued at between 8-12 mil . If we take 10 mil for easy math he needs to generate 50 WAR over the rest of his career for this to be a fair contract
If we assume the last 6 years will be close to even, he needs 8 years at an average of 6 WAR
Seems about what to expect / what Jays would expect
Team success will hinge on if they can start developing their own talent over the next decade
