Starting pitcher Cole Hamels says his $100,000 pay raise is a low blow from the Philadelphoia Phillies. Hamels was expecting a lot bigger raise based on how he performed last season. After earning $400,000 in 2007, Hamels will now earn $500,000 in 2008.
Since Hamels was not salary arbitration elegible so there really wasn’t anything he could do as the Philles re-worked his contract.
