The reports are that it is a 5 year $60 mil contract. That's not that bad I suppose.

5 years/$60M is still bad.
Aaron Rowand is probably not even worth $7M. He's a below average bat and they are going to hit him 5th. Who's batting 4th? Molina? !@#$, that is one terrible offense.
This is the worst signing of the offseason. The Giants now hold this title for the 2nd straight year.

this team is hopeless.

Re: giants sign aaron rowand to a 5 year deal
And Hunter even admitted he would've taken less!
I'm relieved Sabean did his due diligence and signed a reactionary 5-year contract. The Giants are spending a lot of money on changing the atmosphere in the clubhouse.
Brian, dude, bro-ski, El Primo Douchebag, El Jefe F-uckface, if you want to clean up the clubhouse atmosphere, get in your tire-kicked car and drive on down to the local Wal-Mart, swallow your pride, and drop $50 on a decent humidifier. That'll clean up the clubhouse atmo nice and tidy.
Also, I am going to play the race card and say that the Giants are trying to clean up their image by bringing in hustling white guys. And, I don't mean hustling in the Hustle & Flow sense, I mean it in that intangible, god-like Ecksteinian sense of the word.

I'm rooting for Sabean to sign Carlos Silva for 5 years/$55M.

Re: giants sign aaron rowand to a 5 year deal
I'm guessing this is not the last deal of the season. The OF looks crowded now, but I think one of Roberts/Winn will be traded along with one of the expendable arms for a corner IF before the offseason is over.

That said, I would have much prefered the Jones contract.
But I do think Rowand could lead the league in doubles.

If he leads the league in 2B, Who's gonna drive him in?
