[QUOTE="gtphd, post: 840608, member: 4269"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/atlanta-braves/freddie-freeman-7359/market-value/[/URL] Sporttrac has him pegged at $27.1 M per year with an expected contract of 5 years @ $135 M. That would make him the highest paid 1B in baseball. So the Braves weren't lowballing him. Paul Goldschmidt is probably the best benchmark and he went 5 years @ $130 M (in 2020). Stats are similar last season: .300 avg vs. .295, .896 OPS vs .883, 31 vs 31 HRs. Freeman strikes out less, but Goldschmidt had 50% more doubles. Goldschmidt was also 32 when signing that contract. The relationship probably makes the Braves go 6 years @ $162 M, an I can't imagine he'll get much more than that elsewhere. Certainly no where near $200 M. [/QUOTE]
