Analytics is making teams wise up to younger, more athletic guys and shorter term deals for veterans. Still, Donaldson is coming off 2 injury plagued seasons and otherwise would have gotten a longer deal. I'm surprised they gave him 23 million guaranteed. I would have expected 15 million and incentives based on game played. McCann is now a veteran platoon catcher who was also injured and hit .212 last year. He's going to be on one year deals the remainder of his career.
