MLB Rumors: Free agent pitcher Luis Severino has agreed to a three year, $67 million deal with the Nomadic Athletics of Northern California and possibly one day Nevada, per multiple reports.
This is the biggest free agent deal in the history of the Athletics, who had been publicly stating that they were intending to increase payroll this offseason, despite the fact that they will be spending the next few seasons in a minor league stadium in Sacramento in advance of what they hope will be an eventual move to Las Vegas. Credit to them, at least, for spending some money.
