The Brewers have signed top prospect Jackson Chourio to an eight-year contract extension, according to multiple reports.
Jeff Passan confirmed on Sunday that Chourio and the Brewers reached an agreement on a deal worth at least $82 million with two club options and incentives that could push his earnings up to $142.5 million over 10 years.
Ken Rosenthal first reported last Tuesday that the Brewers and Chourio were in serious extension talks and said on Thursday morning that the deal was close.
Adam McCalvy reported on Friday that Chourio’s deal will contain a base salary of $82 million with incentives that could push it up to $140 million if both options are exercised.
