Don't forget that Javier had ERAs of 3.42, 3,91, and 3.24 with the Expos.

And his 05 season was really good, but was tainted by one or two really bad outings (I had him on my fantasy team and remember it well)

He actually had 9 different starts in 2005 where he gave 5 earned runs or more (and a couple of others where he gave up a ton of hits, but not so many runs). Opponents put up a .759 OPS against him.

It's not the worst contract of the off-season, but it's certainly too much money for a guy that hasn't been better than average in 3 years.
