Red Sox, Mookie Betts Agree On $20M Deal 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sat Jan 12, 2019 7:33 am

American League MVP Mookie Betts, who went to a salary arbitration hearing and beat the Boston Red Sox last year, on Friday settled for $20 million this time around.

The $20 million sets a new standard for players with four or more years of service, and it almost doubles the salary for Betts, who was awarded $10.5 million in 2017 after the Red Sox had countered with a $7.5 million offer.
