Bad news in Philadelphia: contract negotiations between the club and pitcher Aaron Nola are not going very well.
According to the club, there are currently no more negotiations for a new long-term contract. We should therefore expect to see the launcher benefit from its autonomy in a year.
Does this mean that he will definitely leave? Not necessarily… but let’s say it opens the door to a medium time.
After all, if he has another great season, he will be in demand. Whoever pitches March 30 against Jacob deGrom will be overshadowed by Shohei Ohtani, but he’ll still be a coveted pitcher.
Obviously, there is a risk, that of seeing him have a bad season. Otherwise, he could do like his teammate Rhys Hoskins and suffer a big injury at the dawn of autonomy.
But in the best case, he could do like Aaron Judge and increase his value tenfold.
We can think that the pitcher, who helped his club get to the World Series last year, is asking for at least $200 million.
It is said that the Phillies and the clan of the pitcher are really opposite in the negotiations and that it was impossible, at this point, to see him sign by the start of the season.
And since he wanted to sign by the start of the season and not during…
It is possible to believe that he could return in 2024, but he will have the right, during the season, to speak to everyone.
