Three MLB teams—Milwaukee Brewers, Seattle Mariners, and Pittsburgh Pirates—have secured long-term extensions for their top prospects, with Pittsburgh’s Konnor Griffin receiving the largest at nine years, $140M. Seattle’s Colt Emerson and Milwaukee’s Cooper Pratt also received substantial deals. Anticipating a potential work stoppage in 2027, teams are becoming aggressive in extending rookie contracts. Notable prospects like Kevin McGonigle of the Tigers and Chase DeLauter of the Guardians are potential candidates for similar extensions.
