Looking at my possible free agents, I have:
P Adam Eaton (currently making $3 million)
2B Alfonso Soriano ($7 million)
Ut. Mark DeRosa ($350,000)
SS Michael Young ($9 million)

I've decided that of the four, Young must be retained. This year, he is batting .326/.360/.484/.844 with a VORP of 41.2. He has 16 home runs and 5 stolen bases.

Unfortunately, Young wants a king's ransom of $24 million. Fortunately, I have more than enough. I doubt I can upgrade over Young and the fact I can afford it means that's what I'm going to pitch to him. $24 million for three years.
