[新聞] Athletics Extend Coco Crisp

1:41pm: The Athletics have announced (via Twitter) a two-year extension for
center fielder Coco Crisp that includes a vesting option for the 2017 season.
The Steve Comte client had been scheduled to hit free agency following the
2014 campaign but is now controllable by the A's through his age-37 season.
Crisp, who turned 34 in November, slugged a surprising 22 homers in 2013 -- a
new career-best. Those 22 homers were accompanied by 21 stolen bases (in 26
attempts) and a strong .261/.335/.444 triple-slash line, resulting in career-
highs in OPS+ (119) and wRC+ (117). Ultimate Zone Rating pegged Crisp's glove
in center field as slightly below average for the the third straight season,
but Defensive Runs Saved rated him at +6 runs and feels he's been slightly
above average in that same three-year span.
Crisp originally came to the A's on a one-year, $5.25MM deal prior to the 2010
season. Oakland exercised a $5.75MM club option for the 2011 season and then
re-upped with Crisp on a two-year, $14MM contract following the completion of
that campaign. Earlier this offseason, GM Billy Beane picked up his primary
leadoff hitter's $7.5MM option. All told, he's earned $31MM in his Athletics
career to this point (including his 2014 salary) and rewarded the team with a
.264/.327/.417 batting line, solid defense in center field and elite value on
the basepaths. Dating back to 2010, only four players in baseball -- Michael
Bourn, Elvis Andrus, Drew Stubbs and Rajai Davis -- have added more value on
the basepaths than Crisp, per Fangraphs.
Crisp should be flanked corner outfielders Yoenis Cespedes and Josh Reddick
for at least the next two seasons in Oakland. His extension weakens what
already looked to be a thin market for free agent position players next
offseason -- particularly outfielders. Brett Gardner and Colby Rasmus are
among the top names in next year's class, which also includes aging sluggers
such as Michael Cuddyer and Josh Willingham. Rebound campaigns from Chris
Young, Grady Sizemore, Melky Cabrera and/or Nick Markakis could improve the
outlook.
2:38pm: John Hickey of the Bay Area News Group reports that Crisp's extension
guarantees him $22.75MM (Twitter link). Susan Slusser of the San Francisco
Chronicle reports the option breakdown: Crisp's 2017 option will vest if any
of these conditions are met: 550 PAs in 2016; 1100 PAs in 2015-16; 130 games
played in 2016; or 260 games played from 2015-16 with at least 110 of those
coming in 2016.
2:45pm: Crisp receives $11MM in 2015 and 2016, and his vesting option is worth
$13MM with a $750K buyout, Slusser tweets.
