Nov. 16, 9:46pm: Lin reports the full contract breakdown, which goes well beyond
a traditional deal. According to the Athletic, Martinez will make $10MM next se
ason. At the end of the year, the Friars have to decide whether to trigger succe
ssive $16MM team options for the 2024-25 campaigns — essentially a two-year, $3
2MM option. If the team declines those options, Martinez will have to decide whe
ther to exercise successive $8MM player options — a two-year, $16MM guarantee
— or test free agency next offseason. The deal also contains various yet-unknow
n incentives and escalators that could boost the price of both his 2023 base sal
ary and those of the option years.
It’s technically a three-year, $26MM guarantee, as previously reported. Player
options are treated as guaranteed money, so that $16MM plus his $10MM base salar
y for next year counts as the $26MM total. For luxury tax purposes, it’s calcul
ated as an $8.67MM average annual value. However, if the Padres were to exercise
their option, Martinez would be paid $42MM over the next three years (plus any
incentives he reaches). Depending on the option decisions, he could reach free a
gency again next offseason having collected $10MM or play things out in San Dieg
o for three years at either $26MM or $42MM.
