Buster Olney Tweet: "Im hearing rumblings of major news.": Verlander extension?

[JackNicholson1974]

So there is that. Although an extension wouldnt jive with Will Carrols' tweet.

ESPN has bought both the Red Sox an Yankees.

Will Carroll ‏@injuryexpert 2m

 

Ready for that annual last big spring training trade? There's one in the works. Trying to get details.

 

 

We can probably rest easy.

[JackNicholson1974]

Will Carrol is reporting it might be a major trade.

[liveforoctober]

Not sure if it is what you intended... but my stomach dropped when I read this thread title. Felt better with the trade rumor bit.....

[MVP2110]

Clearly the Brewers are worried about Brauny's status

[jerichoholicninja]

Has there been any big name rumored to be traded lately? I check MLBTradeRumors daily and haven't seen anything. I saw Either to the Yankees suggest but that was just a beat writer's opinion.

[MVP2110]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say its Tulo to the Cardinals. unfortunately I now have to go to work so I won't find out til later but hears hoping im wrong

I wasnt trying to scare anyone, that tweet is all I have. As soon as Olney divulges whatever it is he is sitting on I will change the title.

[B2k1121]

Brewers probably traded Braun for a PTBNL and cash to make room for Khris Davis.

[JackNicholson1974]

The suspense is killing us! RT @JustinVerlander: Today is going to be a great day. Big news coming!

[JackNicholson1974]

Im guessing Tigers traded for a closer?

[gobrew23]

Sounds like it might be a Verlander extension.

[jerichoholicninja]

Must mean Verlander signed a mega extension. 8 years and $200 million.

[JackNicholson1974]

If it is, What is so major about that? I mean on a national level that Olney needed to tweet about his rumblings.

[JackNicholson1974]

Verlander traded to the Yankees for the rest of ARod's contract?

[B2k1121]

My sources are telling me it's Axford for Fielder.

[liveforoctober]

Im guessing Tigers traded for a closer?

 

Broxton?

Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder have joined the WWE as a tag team combination to rival the Natural Disasters from the early 90s?

NO! NOT THIS WAY! NO!

[JackNicholson1974]

Olney: Sources: Justin Verlander can make $202m under terms of his new deal. He'll get $180m over next seven seasons, plus vesting option of $22m.

 

Boring. Time for lunch.

Yes, and Paul Bearer wasn't really dead and he will be their manager.

Melvin extends Yuni B. 4 @ 13 with a player option for a 5th year if he finishes in the top 500 in MVP voting or Rawlings doesn't laugh when his name is mentioned.

[kalle8]

The Tigers announced that they have agreed to terms with Justin Verlander on a five-year contract extension through the 2019 season with a vesting option for the 2020 season. Verlander will earn $180MM over the next seven seasons and the option is worth $22MM, meaning that he can earn a total of $202MM under terms of his new deal, sources tell Buster Olney of ESPN.com (on Twitter).

He can get a 100k bonus if he makes a play going to his right. He gets 50k if he makes the appearance of even trying for one.
