As Spring Training approaches, Major League Baseball enters extension season, where teams often negotiate contract extensions, notably with key players. The Phillies exemplify this trend, having established a record-setting extension for Zack Wheeler at $42MM AAV. With Ranger Suárez's impending free agency, the Phillies must decide whether to pursue a long-term contract to retain him. Suárez, a reliable mid-rotation pitcher, has had strong performance metrics, making him an attractive candidate for an extension as teams eye their roster stability heading into the season.
Teams and players are free to talk extensions at any time, but it becomes most common just ahead of the regular season.
The Phillies achieved a record-setting $42MM average annual value extension for Zack Wheeler, signifying their strong commitment to top-tier pitching.
