Re: Weathers contract
100k bonuses for games finished and appearances (he doesn't have the numbers). That and the standard all-star/postseason awards bonuses.

Re: Weathers contract
Should have moved him before the trade deadline last year, for anything. Weathers is terrible.

Re: Weathers contract
I see this signing being the result of playing a gamble for an extra draft prick. Weathers gave all intentions he would not take arbitration and, test the FA market. I don't have the quote but the gist was he would no longer give the Reds a hometown discount. Unfortunately for us we got stuck when he accepted.
