For comparison sake, the Blue Jays got about 1 2/3 seasons out of Rios in this contract for approximately $4.7 million (~$2.8 million/season).
The White Sox get 5 1/3 seasons out of him for approximately $61.7 million (~$11.6 million/season). That presumes they pay the $1 million buyout to Rios before 2015, rather than taking the $13.5 million option.

This is not some silly theory that's unsupported and deserves being mocked by photos of Xena. ![[Image: ITgoyeg.png]](http://i.imgur.com/ITgoyeg.png)
