Deal With Mo Finalized

Today the deal with closer Mariano Rivera was finalized. It is worth $45 million over three years and will likely by Rivera’s last contract as a major leaguer (he is currently 38 years old.) Rivera has been great to us and it is nice to see him stay in pinstripes once more. Rivera had become a free agent after the season was over, but ended up with the Yanks again… can you imagine him anywhere else anyway? He will certainly be appreciated this year, especially as we try to figure out this whole pitching thing.
