AA signed Donaldson at 3b when we had Camargo ready to go and our biggest hole elsewhere....he does tend to get the biggest impact player he can,...

If i'm not mistaken, I believe I read somewhere that JTR wanted to set the record for highest AAV for a C. The previous record was $23m AAV by Mauer.
