[新聞] Sign Porcello To Four-Year Extension

7:24pm: Porcello’s contract also contains limited no-trade protection,
tweets Jon Heyman of CBS Sports.
6:42pm: The Red Sox announced that they’ve signed right-hander Rick Porcello
to a four-year contract extension that covers the 2016-19 seasons. Porcello
is a client of Excel Sports Management’s Jim Murray. Alex Speier of the
Boston Globe reports (on Twitter) that Porcello will be guaranteed a sizable
$82.5MM over the four years. Per Speier, Porcello receives a $500K signing
bonus before earning $20MM in 2016 and 2017 then $21MM in 2018 and 2019.
Porcello was already slated to earn $12.5MM this season after avoiding
arbitration this winter.
For the 26-year-old Porcello, there’s certainly risk involved in taking a
long-term deal at this juncture, as he was set to hit the open market just
six months from now at the age of 27. However, while he’d have had a chance
at a lengthier deal, the $20MM+ annual salary is likely one that few would
have foreseen a year ago, when the former first-round pick entered the season
with a career 4.51 ERA and a career-high of 182 innings.
Last year’s excellent performance turned Porcello’s fortunes, however, as
he worked to a career-best 3.43 ERA in a new career-high 204 2/3 innings.
Porcello averaged 5.7 K/9, 1.8 BB/9 and posted a 49 percent ground-ball rate
in 2014 — a significant step forward for a pitcher that many have believed
to have untapped potential prior to last year’s breakout. Porcello will
surrender his first four free agent seasons by signing this deal — and
perhaps the ability to lock in a $100MM+ contract next offseason — but he’
ll retain the right to hit the open market again at the age of 30, setting
him up for another significant contract.
While the Red Sox will certainly hope the early stages of his contract go
better than this comparison, the contract isn’t entirely dissimilar,
philosophically, from the one signed by Homer Bailey a year ago. Cincinnati
paid what most considered to be market value for Bailey, tacking five years
and $95MM on top his final arbitration year, despite relatively underwhelming
career statistics. The hope in that contract, as is the case with this deal,
is that recent steps forward will be sustainable, if not a portent for even
further development.
From the Red Sox’ perspective, the deal provides them with additional
certainty in their rotation in the long-term. They’ll now have Porcello
under control through 2019, Wade Miley and Joe Kelly under team control
through 2018, and Clay Buchholz under team control through the 2017 season. It
’s also another example of the Red Sox’ preference to avoid investing in
pitchers in their 30s and their preference to limit the length of long-term
contracts (in this case, likely at the expense of a higher average annual
value).
