I think he will be just fine playing for this team.
Scutaro and the Red Sox agrees to a contract that guarantees him $12.5 million over two seasons over $14 million over three.
He will get a $1 million signing bonus and $5 million salaries in 2010 and 2011. The club holds a $6 million option for 2012, and if it declines Scutaro could exercise a $3 million option or take a $1.5 million buyout.

What a pile of shit...and you wonder why MLB needs a salary cap. A career .265 hitter with an OPS of less than .800 and a RF worse than Jhonny Peralta gets a $12 million+ contract from a big market team...surprise! And then you wonder why Cleveland can't even afford to keep the likes of Ryan Garko or Kelly Shoppach because they are arbitration eligible. Even when it's not a big name free agent,the big markets skew the value of mid to low talent players.
