Here is the rule governing extensions that are less than the current contract:

"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."

Under this rule, Donaldson and Kershaw can only be extended to 2020.
