I don’t think we can do one before year 4 and I doubt that’s a deal-breaker if we’re willing to do close to 10/$400M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peavy44 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 If yankees offering 8 year deal to harper they are not serious and I believe the cubs try 6 year deal say play with your buddy Bryant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be a deal breaker. Fans in general seem to tremendously underrate the value of opt-outs. Luckily, I can see Boras/Harper being so obsessed with getting that WOW total $ number that they don't push this angle as hard as they could.

Heyward was a similar age during his free agency and the Cubs providing the 3-year opt-out with heavy money upfront put them in the lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you see a better opportunity, whether it be money, team, etc., they exercise their opt-out and become free agents again. If they don't see that opportunity, they don't exercise the opt-out.

They would want that, but Harper isn't going to take THAT MUCH of a lesser deal in exchange for it. He's not going to sign a $200 million total value deal just because you gave him an opt out after $50 million in the first 2 years. How much they might trade for an earlier opt out...well we'll see.
