I'm okay with this contract, because I believe Evans will be worth it and our center depth means he isn't likely to be pushed out of a spot soon.
In general however, I dislike signing bottom 6 players to extensions ahead of time. We aren't currently pinching pennies, but deal with the big contracts first and then give the other guys what you can afford.
If Suzuki or Caufield end up looking for $11M, those pennies start to add up.
