The Yanks have offered closer Mariano Rivera $15 million per year.
The older, and apparently less effective Rivera, is now getting $15 million per year.  Suppose Brewers’ GM Doug Melvin has paid a visit to Mark Attanasio and his partners’ accountants already?
This offer–if true–does not bode well for the Crew re-signing Francisco Cordero.  If Rivera is worth that much, wouldn’t Cordero be worth at least $12 million per year?  Will the Brew spring for that kind of change?  I kind of doubt it.
