$10 Million isn't a hefty contract for a proven big leaguer, but it's a nice start for a 22 year old who will pitch mostly in AA and AAA this year. He was a 5th round selection, but apparently he would have been higher if he had committed solely to baseball prior to the MLB draft. A friend of mine is a nuts Cubs fans and knows waaaay more about baseball than I do, and he raves about this kid.
