Jake Westbrook Is Rich
The Indians have signed Jake Westbrook to a three-year enhancement worth $33 million. That's Michael David Smith money! The group plans to prop a press meeting at 4:30PM Est. to declare the deal.
The Tribe began compact negotiations with Westbrook, who would have been fit for free agent after the '07 season, during Spring Training. The two sides had enough impetus toward a deal to prolong the talks into the season.
Westbrook's 44 victories among 2004-06 were knotted as fifth-most in American League pitchers, after Johan Santana (55),

The Indians had too been looking to work out deals with C.C. Sabathia and Travis Hafner this spring, and there's no differentiating what this handle manner for those two. One of the causes namely Westbrook may have received a deal before Sabathia is his durability.
While it's pretty apparent that Sabathia has the superior stuff,

Westbrook has pitched at least 210 innings each annual since 2004. Sabathia has merely pitched 210 innings once, and that was behind in 2002.
I'm not also sure that the Indians ambition re-sign Sabathia. They are still talking with Travis Hafner approximately a fashionable deal, and I wouldn't be wondered to listen news about that in the coming weeks,
