I don't believe this is the beginning of the end for Robinson Cano. I don't, because I can't. Cano, tabbed to be a cornerstone of the franchise for a decade, will be paid $24 million from now until I'm an age I'd rather not calculate—and the idea of this going to hell after just a year is something I'm going to mentally block out as much as I can.
I mean, come on, it's Robbie Cano. All you have to do is look at the back of his baseball card to know he's going to be alright.
