Orioles get:
Jose Berrios $4m (2025)
Jared Walsh (spec)
Francisco Alvarez (spec)

Expos get:
Max Fried $0.5 (P-2022)
Joey Bart (spec)
Bobby Dalbec $0.5 (P-2024)
Nolan Jones (spec)

I was going to have pay Fried after the year anyway so Berrios gives me a bit of long term cost certainty and I?m able to get a prospect I coveted and a promising first baseman for guys whose ceiling I?ve been waiting on for what seems like too long.

My apologies for the incorrect amounts. Here?s the correct extensions:

Realmuto: 6.8m 3 years
Torres: 0.5m 2 years
Soto: 14.8m 5 years
Hader: 4m 5 years
Lugo: 5.5m 2 years
Chapman: 4.8m 1 yr

No longer extending Kimbrel and still dropping Brad Hand

Any player signed to a new contract in the off-season after the original contract ends must be signed to at least 50% of what they made before, rounded to the nearest $0.5m. A contract extension which is less than the current contract may only be two years in length. 

JT Realmuto is on a regular expiring contract and eligible for a prospect discount.

New Contract: C Realmuto, JT, $6.8m (2023) - 50% Clause and Minimum Extension Limit

2B, SS Torres, Gleyber, $0.5m (2023)

OF Soto, Juan, $14.8m (2026)

2.) Prospect extensions are subject to the following stipulations:
     a.) The extension must be a 5-year deal where the annual salary is X% of their market value.   
     b.) The resulting annual salary must be no less than $4m.

17-P                 $6.0
18-P                 $5.8
19-P                 $5.5
20-P                 $5.3
21-P                 $5.0
22-P                 $4.8

RP Hader, Josh and RP Lugo, Seth must be extended at $4.0m (2026) - 5 years or for $6.0m and $5.5m for 2, 3, or 4 years.

RP Kimberll, Craig and RP Chapman, Aroldis are on regular expiring contracts and eligible for a prospect discounts.

New Contract:  RP Kimbrell, Craig, $5.3m (2023) - Minimum length of extension

New Contract:  RP Chapman, Aroldis, $4.8m (1 - 3 years)

Sorry if there was any confusion, but these players were clearly marked that they were on (P-n/a) contracts one Expiring Contracts.

Please review and approve.
