Closer Look At Travis Hafner's Performance Bonuses


Travis Hafner signed a one year deal with the Yankees worth $2,000,000 on February first with a ton of incentive kickers that could increase the deal to being worth $6,000,000. Let's take a closer look at Hafner's performance bonuses and how much more we could be paying Pronk this season if he stays healthy.

Not that we should really be concerned with, and I use the term loosely, chump change but it really helps that Pronk is a part time DH. With him not being on the disabled list as all this season, although he did miss a few games with a sore shoulder earlier in the season, he could trigger quite a few of these this season. 

*bolded denotes a plateau he has already reached.
