Josh Hamilton a Free Agent At Year's End....So What Will He Be Worth?

Holy smolee ? Josh Hamilton exploded last night and hit 4 homers and a double in one game . Haven't seen a power performance like that since he jacked out like 27 homers in the Home Run Derby at the "Old Yankee Stadium " a few years back!
His 2012 Numbers ; 14 homers, 36 RBI's , and batting .406 . I know it's only the second week of May, but Hamilton with his amazing strength and sweet swing(Did anyone say Roy Hobbs?) may have just added a few zeros to his free-agent value .
Could you imagine him hitting in Yankee Stadium or Fenway with their respective right field porches ? Scary . Big question is, will anyone really pitch to him the rest of the year ? I don't think so!
Anyway, think about this. Hamilton finishes with 45 homers, 130 RBI's and hits .350. Now remember he's 30 years old. What type of deal would this mega-free agent get?
Maybe $210 million for seven years . More? Your thoughts?
