It's the only way a franchise like the Padres can wrap somebody like Tatis up, through the entirety of his prime.

It's a big gamble for the Padres but if he even comes close to reaching his potential, it will be a bargain (cough, cough) for the Padres at $24 Million a year.

To put it in perspective, 7 years ago, the Yankees gave a 30 year-old injury prone Jacob Ellsbury, a $21+ Million a year, 7 year contract.

Unless Tatis suffers a brutal injury, I think this will work out much better for the Padres.
