"What is David Price going to do with his new riches?

He's not sure, but the Rays left-hand pitcher who agreed today to a one-year deal worth $4.35 million, offered this idea:

"I might ask (Derek) Jeter if I can buy a wing in his house for a little while," Price said this afternoon during a conference call.

Price, a Super 2 player who opted out of the final year of the six-year contract he signed after being drafted in 2007, received the most money for a first-time arbitration-eligible player since former Marlin Dontrelle Willis signed for the same amount in 2006.

When asked how it feels to tie Willis, Price joked, "It's awesome. You're always trying to set records, so it's pretty cool that I can tie him.""
