2) I gave you the details on MLB rookie salary contracts (3 years until arbitration eligible and 6 years until free agency eligible)
3) You stated the A's wouldn't likely have his best years
4) I gave studies on when pitchers begin to decline to support my argument that the A's will likely have Inoa through his best years
5) You throw out insults.
In this whole thing you are the one who made up that I was making a claim that the A's would keep him after free agency. If he ends up being great it is unlikely that the A's hold onto him after his free agency years. He is likely a 6-7 year player for the A's. I'm very happy with this because that means we get his best years.
I'm still waiting on your thoughts on Moneyball.

Time will tell if you get his best years.
Moneyball hasn't won the A's a World Series yet much less got them to it.
Cue Funk's excuse that only the teams who're lucky win the World Series.
