WELCOME BACK!!!
That seems to be the trend recently. Especially for the players coming from impoverished countries. I think those kind of contracts work well for both player and team. Acuna contract was brilliantly done by the Braves.bullard21k said:Agmaniacmike12 said:
I'm not 100% certain on this, but Alvarez is likely making the minimum salary of 550K for a full year(less when adjusted for the fact he was called up in June).
He won't accrue a year of service time this year, so he will play in 2020, 2021, and 2022 around that salary. He will have 2023 and 2024 arbitration. He would hit free agency in 2025.
Just told my wife after next year I would do an early long term 10 year type deal similar to Bregmans.
Don't know if he and his agent would go for it but I bet they would consider it given that he would get paid big bucks 4-5 years before he was a FA
