This past offseason’s Major League Baseball free agency class was one of the most anticipated and discussed, and while it took longer than expected, the headliners of the class, Bryce Harper and Manny Machado, ended up making out pretty well when they signed respective contracts.
Harper inked a 13-year, $330 million contract with the Philadelphia Phillies, which is the largest contract in North American Sports history. His deal, shockingly, does not include any opt outs.
Machado was not far behind, signing with the San Diego Padres for 10 years and $300 million.
