First-class player slugger Manny Machado has assented to a new $350m, 11-year contract that will keep him with the San Diego Padres through 2033, a source has told the Related Press.
The methodology, which was first revealed by ESPN, is yet to be done. Machado was held to bat second on Sunday in the Padres’ spring orchestrating game against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Machado, 30, had bestowed that after this season, he expected to stop the $300m, 10-year deal he embraced in 2019. With the $120m he at this point has gotten, the new game plan gathers the free-spending Padres’ commitment to Machado to $470m for more than 15 years.
Machado, who has helped change the Padres into a General title contender, finished second in the NL MVP with hustling the prior year. He’ll get a superstar-stacked plan that facilitates Xander Bogaerts, Juan Soto, and Fernando Tatis Jr, who can return on April 20 from an 80-game suspension for execution of redesigning drugs.
The $350m methodology will be the fourth-most essential in MLB history, behind broadened length game plans maintained by Mike Trout ($426.5m), Mookie Betts ($365m), and Aaron Judge ($360m).
