A’s and Rich Harden agree to one-year, $1.5 million contract
Rich Harden and the A’s have agreed to a one-year contract worth $1.5
illion in guaranteed money and another $1.5 million in potential incentives,
according to a major league source.
Harden, who was drafted by the A’s in 2000 and pitched in Oakland from 2003
to mid-2008, returns after stints with the Cubs and Rangers.
He hasn’t been injury free for an entire season since way back in 2004 and
for the first time this year Harden’s performance suffered even when he was
healthy enough to pitch, as he went 5-5 with a 5.58 ERA and 75/62 K/BB ratio
in 92 innings for the Rangers, who bumped him from the rotation and then left
him off the postseason roster.
His average fastball velocity dropped to a career-low 90.5 miles per hour
this year and has gradually declined from his peak of 94.3 and 94.4 mph in
2004 and 2005, so the longstanding belief that Harden is capable of making a
huge impact if he can just stay healthy is also now in plenty of doubt.
Still, the price is right and Harden was 36-19 with a 3.42 ERA and 523
strikeouts in 542 innings for the A’s the first time around.
