FORmer storm
It's spring training time, but it's also money time for a couple of Storm alumni. Francisco Rodriguez (2000 Storm) and Oliver Perez ('01-'02 Storm) were recently involved in major league arbitration cases. Both came out winners financially, but in fact Perez won his case against the New York Mets and Rodriguez lost his against the Los Angeles Angels. In losing, Rodriguez was awarded a $10 million salary for 2008 as opposed to the $12.5 million he was seeking. The Mets, meanwhile, offered Perez $4.725 million for the upcoming season. Perez a 15-game winner in 2007, will earn $6.5 million this season. The owners won six of eight cases that went to hearings during the off-season.
