Mets exercise options on Wright and Dickey
The Mets have formally picked up their contract options for David Wright and
R.A. Dickey, sources told Ken Rosenthal and Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports
(via Twitter). The Mets began the early stages of extension talks with both
players after the season but the discussions were reportedly moving slowly.
Wright's option for 2013 will pay him $16MM while Dickey's is for just $5MM.
Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com reported earlier today that the third baseman
was discussing a long-term deal with the club. Officials told Joel Sherman
of the New York Post that they expected an extension for Wright to cost about
$143MM over eight years when including the 2013 option.
Some have speculated that Dickey could be in line for a Oliver Perez-type
extension, which would be for three years at about $36MM. However, the Mets
reportedly don't have anything that lucrative in mind. At the age of 38,
Dickey's situation is a complicated one as knuckleballers historically
haven't fared well beyond 40.
球隊臉Wright明年1600萬
據傳Mets正在跟他談8年以上總額大約143M的新合約
而今年鬼神Dickey明年500萬
但據報導Mets沒有要跟他簽複數年約的意思
很多人先前猜測Dickey大概可以拿到像Oliver Perez 36M/3y的合約
但歷史上超過40歲的蝴蝶球投手通常都不符身價(Dickey 38)
