There was already plenty to like about the reported agreement between the Milwaukee Brewers and Yasmani Grandal, the top catcher and one of the top players overall on this year’s free agent market.
Now that the signing is official, there’s this news: it may not necessarily be a one-year deal.
Yasmani Grandal's deal with the Milwaukee Brewers is actually a one-year deal that includes a mutual 2020 option, league sources tell ESPN. The deal has a $16 million base and $2.25 million buyout on a $16 million option.
Mutual options rarely, if ever, get exercised.
