Only in Major League Baseball could a player like Troy Tulowitzki ink that kind of deal.
Honestly, have you seen the numbers on that thing? On Tuesday Tulowitzki and the Rockies agreed to a seven-year, $134 million contract extension that runs through the 2020 season. Factored in with his current contract ...
