Howard's contract: 14:$25M, 15:$25M, 16:$25M, 17:$23M club option ($10M buyout) So the answer is, yes, Ryan, I would gladly trade places. I will happily sit on the bench. I will strike out >30% of my at-bats. For that money, I would even put on a Phillies hat and associate with Chase Utley, things that I would not ordinarily ever consider doing of my own free will. Let me know whenever you're ready to trade, thanks.
