MLB Rumors: Trevor Bauer and the Los Angeles Dodgers have agreed to terms on a three year deal with opt outs after years one and two, per multiple reports. While reports had indicated that it was a two team race as of yesterday, the expectation was that the New York Mets were the heavy favorite for Bauer, with the Dodgers, the other team involved, being a longshot.
The deal reportedly guarantees Bauer $40 million in 2021, with an opt-out after the 2021 season. If he does not opt out, he is guaranteed $45 million in 2022, with an opt-out after the 2022 season.
