I like Wolf, and don't think this is a terrible value, but when you look at someone like Penny who will make 7.5mil + incentives, it's pretty ridiculous.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Wolf had the 19th best VORP of all pitchers in both leagues last year. He was better than every Cubs pitcher, including the 3 that are paid much more than him. If you take into account his whole career I think $9 per season is a little high, but it really isn't way overboard.
