It’s not often you hear the number 324 million attached to one player, but for New York Yankees‘ star signing Gerrit Cole, it became a reality rather quickly during the 2020 offseason.
Cole, who was coming off a World Series appearance with the Houston Astros, signed for $324 million with the Yanks, who shattered the record for a starting pitcher but locked up one of the best arms in baseball in the process. Dishing out $36 million per season must come with a reward, and Cole gave us a glimpse into that reality over the weekend, tossing against live hitters for the first time this offseason.
