southsider2k5 Posted October 27, 2014 Author Share Posted October 27, 2014 http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2014/10/al-e...des-hamels.html The Orioles have spoken to Nick Markakis‘ agent and will continue contract discussions this week, Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com reports. Markakis is expected to hit free agency when the O’s decline their half of a $17.5MM option on the outfielder’s services for 2015. “Both sides want to get a deal done, but….A hometown discount has its limits,” Kubatko writes. Indeed, Markakis will draw a lot of interest on the open market, with MLBTR’s Steve Adams predicting Markakis will find a three- or four-year deal worth between $39-$48MM (depending on whether the Orioles extend a qualifying offer).

If he took it, adding his buyout, it comes out to about the same as his option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
