BARKLEY, HELENA AGREE ON DEAL




The first monster deal was agreed upon, as Bill Barkley and the Helena Hunters (formerly Santa Cruz) agreed to a 5-year/$110M deal, which includes a $10M bonus, player option in S19, and a no-trade clause.

Barkley always had the ability, ever since he was the #1 overall pick in S2. He was always good, but S14 was when he finally stepped his game up and won the NL MVP award. And now, Barkley cashes in. However with the cash, comes added pressure and responsibility. Barkley will be counted on to help the .243 team average Helena (then Santa Cruz) hit for in S14, which ranked 4th from the last in the league. Best of luck to you, Mr. Barkley.. and congrats.
