Beyond that, at 2,800 K, is Master Kisho, who as of today is exactly 1,000 K ahead of Kisho at 3,800 total. Of course he’s the first guy to get there.
Meanwhile, Dickerson - … it’s not pretty, is it? I will cry over those $9.6M forever. And the $3.2M for next year are a PLAYER option, so …

On what ballot will Brownie get elected into the hall? That question is really pressing.
Hm... you know, I wouldn't cry over spilt millions until the cows come home -- 3.95 is normally pretty average, but pitching seems to be on the decline in the ABL this year. Dickerson may unwisely choose to opt-out and take less money for more years.
Of course, you could always get the mascot to provide some incentive for Dickerson to decline... he sure wouldn't like waking up covered in fluffing.
