Willis reportedly signed through 2010
posted in 2007-08 offseason, roster moves |Jon Paul Morosi reports that Dontrelle Willis and the Tigers have agreed to a contract that will keep him in Detroit through 2010. The reported salary will be 7M in 2008, 10M in 2009 and 12M in 2010 for a total of $29M.
That sounds reasonable to me. Keeping Willis around helps cancel out the fact the Tigers traded so many pitching prospects. But it’s not long term deal, so it’s a bit safer for both player and team.
