They locked him up early into a contract that will be below market value unless he opts out.

His opt out is after 6 years. At 31, could he do better than 25M a year?

I read that it was after five years. Either way, he leaves when he has the chance.

Right, but it's also a nice little insurance policy for himself if things don't work out.

Depends. Someone gave A-Roid a 10 year deal. Same with Pujols. If he's playing at a high level I'm sure that won't be an issue.
