Veteran Whisler Signs with Padres
Friday, May 7th, 2055
San Diego management got a shot in the arm today as Matt Whisler announced he would re-sign with the organization at a rate of $41,875,000 per year.
While some have questioned hiring a 34-year-old man, most fans and sportswriters appear receptive as Whisler is still an A list player.
Whisler has made 7 starts this season, posting 3 wins and 2 losses. Opposing clubs are batting .219 against him and he has 65 strikeouts in 51.1 innings with a 3.51 ERA.
