Blue Jays Lock Up Morrow

The Toronto Blue Jays have signed Brandon Morrow to a three-year, $20-million contract with a club option for the 2015 season of $10-million, the club announced during a Tuesday press conference.  Terms of the deal were first reported by Sportsnet's Shi Davidi.  http://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/2012/01/24/jays_morrow/
My Take: He's young and has a live arm, potentially he could be a steal in a couple of years. The Jays could have had him for $4mil. This year but if he had a good year, he could've signed for a lot more at the back end of this deal.   The only problem, what if he's the next AJ Burnett.  95 mph fastball, 85 pitching IQ because that's what he's shown so far. 1 great start, 1 start where he's lit-up like a Christmas tree.  For Jay's fans heres hoping it's more good than bad.
