If you look at the FanGraphs Value System, the Rockies have gotten 35.2 M dollars of surplus value since 2002. They've paid Helton 89 million dollars since 2002 and have gotten production that would cost close to 125 million. Hardly an albatross contract. Helton was putting up 5, 6, and almost 7 WAR seasons in the years after being signed. Vernon Wells' best since the contract? 1.2. That's an albatross. Not Helton, though.Dustinnoreply@blogger.com
