There’s been a sudden shift in the last week or so among players, front offices, and most importantly with the amount of big contracts that are being agreed to. The likes of Craig Kimbrel and Dallas Keuchel are STILL waiting on a free agent contract, but the last few days have been great to players who have been seeking extensions with their current clubs.
Of course we saw the record breaking deal that Mike Trout agreed to in Anaheim, and we’ve seen big money pitchers like Justin Verlander and Jacob deGrom work out extensions as well.
