The Cleveland Guardians and second baseman Andrés Giménez have agreed to a seven-year, $106.5 million contract extension, per ESPN's Jeff Passan.

The deal begins in 2024 and includes a 2031 club option. Per Passan, the contract covers three arbitration years and potentially five free-agent seasons if the team picks up the 2031 option.

Giménez, 24, earned All-Star and Gold Glove honors last year after hitting .297 (.837 OPS) with 17 home runs, 69 RBI and 20 stolen bases. He ranked fifth among all American League players in defensive WAR (wins above replacement) at 2.4, per Baseball Reference.
