Contract Value Index (CVI)
Webb's five-year, $18M AAV extension earns a harsh D CVI — a substantial overpay for what should have been a more measured investment in the Giants' rotation anchor. Despite his A-level performance and 2025 Gold Glove award, paying elite starter money to a 29-year-old established veteran carries significant risk as he enters the back half of his prime years. The $90 million commitment reflects San Francisco's desperation to lock down their most reliable arm, but the term length extends well into Webb's decline phase for a pitcher already showing the inconsistent outings that concerned evaluators. While Webb maintains his credibility as a franchise-caliber starter and the media still respects his veteran leadership — particularly after his accountability following the Yankees opener — this contract assumes sustained excellence from a pitcher approaching 30. The Giants needed to retain their ace, but this deal pays him like a perennial Cy Young candidate rather than the very good but not elite starter he's proven to be, creating a significant value gap that will likely worsen as the contract progresses.
Performance Analysis
Logan Webb grades as a near-elite performer among MLB starting pitchers, earning a A- Performance grade. He carries a 3.42 ERA (below the league average of 4.20, a strong mark) and a 1.20 WHIP across 1067.1 innings pitched with a 8.4 K/9 rate. His 70-54 record provides context on team support and run prevention. As a prime-age veteran at 29, Logan is a key contributor for the Giants. A 181-game sample provides high confidence in this grade.
