Stat: Successful Pitchers making over $100 Million dollars

In Major League History there are only 4 pitchers who had a total contract over 100 Million, Who are they??

1) Johan Santana $137.5 Million
2) Barry Zito $126 Million
3) Mike Hampton $121 Million (Loved the Schools)
4) Kevin Brown $105 Million

Out of those four players, the only one has had a successful season with ERA under 3.00 after he signed, Who is he?

Johan Santana !

Here is a look at his numbers from last year compared to all the other who signed previous to him:

Barry Zito has been a disaster in San Francisco:

Mike Hampton has NEVER lived up to the hype, getting injured at a alarming rate:

Kevin Brown could not even last the length of his contract, only pitched two years of it!

Yankee Fans better watch out for what they get, because if CC Sabathia is the next $140 Million Man it does not mean it will translate into success from past history.

With all his weight problems and overuse (on short rest, ETC) , they could have another Kevin Brown on their hands....Alert ----->Meltdown!
