According to a report by The Athletic (Ken Rosenthal), the Milwaukee Brewers are about to spend some of the money they saved by losing Yasmani Grandal and Mike Moustakas by locking up their superstar outfielder, Christian Yelich.

The report indicates that the agreement is a nine-year deal worth about $215 million and is expected to be announced Friday at the team’s Spring Training Facility.

The Brewers obviously plan to make Yelich their centerpiece for years to come as they build around him and try to compete for championships year in and year out. Congratulations to the Brewers, Yelich, and Brewers fans on this amazing extension.
