The Yankees Took Cheap a Flier on Chris Carter

How did a player who hit 41 jacks net just a $3 million deal, and how does he fit into the Yankees?

It took until February 7th, but a man who hit 41 home runs a year ago and has averaged 33 dingers over the last four seasons has finally signed a free agent contract with a new team.

This seems crazy, right? I mean, how does Chris Carter, who finished as one of only seven players to hit at least 40 bombs last season, last this far into the offseason and only manage to score a one-year, $3 million contract with the New York Yankees?
