The Philadelphia Phillies have extended left-hander Cristopher Sanchez with a six-year contract from 2027 to 2032, guaranteeing him $107MM, including $3.5MM for 2026, and over $13MM in performance incentives. This surprising move comes as Sanchez is only in his second season of a previous four-year, $23.5MM deal. After a stellar 2025 season, where he posted a 2.50 ERA and earned an All-Star selection, the Phillies are betting on his continued success into his mid-thirties. Sanchez now joins Trea Turner and Jesus Luzardo as players under team control beyond Bryce Harper‘s contract expiration in 2031.
