D.C. Daly said that the deal was a "huge, huge deal," but that everyone seems to ahve come out "pretty happy in the end."
You don't often see deals that are "win, win for everyone. But I think this deal will pan out for all of us in the end. Or at least, as far as we're concerned, we're happy with where the deal has gone for us and we believe that the flexiblity it gives us going forward makes it well worth it."
The Brownstones will enter the regular season 12th in payroll overall at $80.5 million.
