Hunter Henry's Future

[TommyD4207]

Basically on a one year non-guaranteed deal for around $8M. I'm sure he might have interest in an extension and some more guarantees. Guessing they will get one done at some point, probably mid-season, for around the same value AAV ($8-9M a year), maybe another 2 or 3 years. Drake really likes him, so it makes sense to keep him around for a bit longer and lets them give Raridon a longer runway for development. They did not get to see Hill at all this year either, so keeping Henry a little longer helps insure the position instead of going into 2027 just hoping Hill is productive.

Im fine with him coming back. Im just not going to rush and wait outside of his house trying to give him a contract extension.
