IST: Mets vs Cubs

[PickSix]

How does Kintzler’s 2019 contract work? Do we eat $5 mill to make him go away, or are we on the hook for $10 mill regardless?

How does Kintzler’s 2019 contract work? Do we eat $5 mill to make him go away, or are we on the hook for $10 mill regardless?

2 years/$10M (2018), plus 2019 club or player option
re-signed by Washington as a free agent 12/14/17
18:$5M, 19:$10M club option or $5M player option
price of 2019 options may increase based on 2018 performance

Most likely 10 mil not offered but he could still pull 5 mil opt to stay.
