145 Million Contract Finalized

Jesse Winker Signs 2-Year Deal with Nationals

14.5 Million Contract Finalized

Jesse Winker has inked a two-year, $14.5 million contract with the Washington Nationals, as reported by a reliable source. The agreement includes a $1.5 million signing bonus and guarantees the outfielder $6.25 million this season and $8.25 million next year.

Avoiding Arbitration

This contract settlement effectively prevents Winker from going through arbitration, a process that determines player salaries when no agreement can be reached. With this deal, Winker will receive a significant pay raise from his previous $5.3 million salary earned with the Cincinnati Reds.
