Tim Lincecum; 2009 NL Cy Young Winner; UPDATE: Lincecum 'math: $15M in arbitration?
Through the mill:
Tim Lincecum wins the 2009 MLB NL Cy Young award.
**
UPDATE--Lincecum math:
**Local agent Ben Werberlin told me that Lincecum could easily ask for over $15 million in arbitration from the Giants. Lincecum is arbitration eligible for the 2010 season...He made $650,000 last year.
There is speculation that the Giants will want to offer a long-term deal to their repeat Cy-Young stud; Lincecum will be expensive no matter what contractual structure.
His co-partner, Barry Zito, who signed a then-record $126 million deal over seven years in 2006, seems to be at least a starting point for negotiations.
YIKES!
