Man how much money to Ozzie cost himself with that contract extension?
He would have been a free agent after 2023, coming off a 4.1 fWAR, 1.1, 3.7, 4.2, 4.1 (not counting covid year). 26 years old.
He probably gets a 6 year, 120M contract?
Instead, he's finishing off 2 years, 14M with the Braves.
And that's not even factoring in how much he would have given up in arbitration in 2021-2023, where he earned $15M over those three years. He probably easily doubles that through arb.
