Diamondbacks Sign Corbin Burnes to Six-Year, $210 Million Deal, Largest in Franchise History
Dec 28, 2024, 06:27 AM
Corbin Burnes, the top free-agent starting pitcher on the market, has agreed to a six-year, $210 million contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks, according to multiple reports. The deal, which includes an opt-out clause after two years, carries an average annual value of $35 million, tying for the sixth-largest AAV ever for a starting pitcher. This contract is the largest in Diamondbacks franchise history. Burnes, a former Cy Young Award winner who recently became a father to twins, resides in Scottsdale, Arizona. The move allows him to stay close to home, a factor that reportedly influenced his decision. Despite higher offers from the San Francisco Giants and Toronto Blue Jays, Burnes chose Arizona, with state taxes playing a decisive role. Burnes joins a dynamic rotation that includes Zac Gallen, Merrill Kelly, Eduardo Rodriguez, and potentially Jordan Montgomery.
