Contract Clarification Not "Prior" to Last Post

Just saw this article up on ESPN with Prior's salary. MLB didn't have the info up yet. They're always slow, naturally, because they're only the guy's employer. Makes sense. Anyway, it looks like it's a $1 million base salary with a ton of incentives. He didn't want two years or an option, which were both offered to him by various teams, because he wants to prove himself this year and cash in as a 2008 free agent. Maybe if he's bad this year, and not worth much, we can sign him next year! Or maybe, if we're contenders, we could sign him even if he ends up being good for SD. That's called futuristic thinking.
