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.Phillies resign3B Donaldson, Josh, $14.3m (2018)Highest rank #8 in 2017New contract3B Donaldson, Josh, $7.2m (2020)SP Kershaw, Clayton, $20m (2018)Highest rank #29 in 2018New contractSP Kershaw, Clayton, $10m (2020)SP Porcello, Rick, $2.5m (2018)Highest rank #23 in 2018New contractSP Porcello, Rick, $6.7m (2022)Please releaseOF Smith, Seth, $1.5m (2019)P Cecil, Brett, $1.2m (2018)P Romo, Sergio, $1.1m (2018)
