Incoming Miguel Cabrera extension

[nate]

Rumors of an extension for Cabrera.  AAV more then 30m and through at least 2021.

[Chuck]

I'm pretty sure Trout's agent was waiting to see what Cabrera would get before going back to the table with the Angels. 

 

That said, Cabrera has been a stud for 11 seasons so he's getting his like Pujols did with us.

@jonmorosi: Tigers' deal with Miguel Cabrera is done, source confirms @JonHeymanCBS report. Announcement in next 24 hours.

[nate]

Now they are saying at least 7 years.  Seems a bit risky for a guy who already started showing wear on his body.

Miguel Cabrera's deal will have AAV around $30 million, over at least 6 additional years beyond the 2 he has left on current contract.

Hopefully it's 10 years. 

[SoWhat]

@Ken_Rosenthal: Eight-year extension at $30M per would increase #Tigers’ overall commitment to Cabrera to 10 years, $284M. Cabrera turns 31 on April 18.

Obviously some people cant learn from others....

[Sherlock31]

He'll be 31 next month, so 2+8 more years, that means he'll be 40 years old when his contract end. I wonder what his stat would be when he is 40 years old.

Does this mean scherzer is out of the budget?....

[WallyWorld]

man, as good as he's been for Detroit, I don't know that I would have done that deal if I were them.  That contract could look mighty bad in a couple years.

 

also, I think Chuck is right - Trout's agent was probably waiting for this.

[rageous]

Another bad 10 year deal incoming.

When will these teams learn?

[bloodbrother]

8yr/$248 mill extension tacked onto his current deal that has 2yr/$44 mill left on it....

 

 

So it's 10yr/$292 million overall for Miggy

The decline is sure scary when you realize that just in the past year he went from winning the Triple Crown to not winning the Triple Crown.

 

Sam Miller is kind of awesome.

Trout is worth all your base.

[Tyler]

Horrible news.

[YouthofToday]

Good! Means We wont offer him a 5/300M when he's 36...

Was thinking a very similar thing.

Im taking some heat off you YOT

How about MCash?

[NrM]

Holly ****. 

I'm glad the angels don't have the worst contract in sports now.

[Angel Oracle]

This is worse than Pujols' deal.    M-Cab has never been in good shape the past few years to start with, and turns 31 soon.   Combine that with this being his 12th MLB season, and thus having 10 remaining seasons with Detroit for $292 million is stupid money.

 

That must mean that Scherzer is out of there after 2014? 

 

Heck knows what Trout can command, but I think we can limit his time here to probably at most 7 more seasons?
