Multiyear Contracts

Have they paid off?

Here are past multi-year signings in BWB.  Keep in mind that the cost of multi-year contracts went up in the 2002 season and again in 2004, so getting the Albert Pujols and Eric Gagne bargains shown below is not as likely.

 

(Also note I made a few mistakes in previous years)
