Ahead of the Braves’ division series against the Phillies, the team announced that right-hand pitcher Spencer Strider signed a six-year, $75 million deal on Monday.
This means the young pitcher will remain under contract through at least the 2028 season. The deal also includes a $22 million club option for 2029 with a $5 million buyout. If the club option is used, the deal will be worth $92 million over seven years.
Strider is now set to earn $1 million in the 2023 and ’24 seasons, then $4 million in ’25, $20 million in ’26 and, finally, $22 million in the ’27 and ’28 seasons.
