Jeter's tops was $21M last year. I think his contract averaged out to 18M a year.
A-Rod's deal averages $27M over the course of it. If he gets all the incentives near the end - mostly all HR record type stuff it'll average out to 30M a year over the life of it.
Just saw some report that the Cards offered an average salary of $19-21M a year. Thats obviously not close to what he deserves.
