We signed all of our prized position players last year (Kipnis, Santana, Gomes, and Brantley).Footwedge;1719018 wrote:
I see similar deals coming to fruition with more of their young starters. This is exactly how J. Hart built the tribe dynasty in the mid-late 90's..only it was position players and not pitchers.

Carrasco could be better than Kluber with his stuff. He could also be, well, we know the answer. $7.25M a year could be a steal or a disaster. I like the gamble.

$38.5M guaranteed over 5 years for Kluber. Curious to see what the incentive bonuses are when the details come out.

Looks like Carrasco got 4 years + 2 club options which is awesome.
That makes me think that Kluber got 5 + 2.

Yup. If he maxes out his incentives over 5 years he'll definitely give us more than $77M worth.like_that;1719061 wrote:That's still a fucking steal.

Reading my e- mail from the Tribe...option years are 2020 and 2021. The deal is 7 years...but this year is included.
Options years are for $13.5 mil in 2020 and $14 mil 2021 Both years with $1 million buyout. Kluber gets $1 mil signing bonus plus a raise this year to $1 mil from his previously signed contaract off $600K
