He got torched in Sept last year: http://www.baseball-reference.com/playe ... r=2011&t=p

In the offseason he signs a big fat deal (which he had turned down previous).

Comes out of the gates essentially sucking again this year and goes down injured.

You do the math.

No idea - I assume they do a physical before they sign up for a multi-year extension, but it obviously didn't show any red flags.

Well, even the MRI this year didn't show anything, and I doubt a physical includes that (though it should for that kind of cash).
