For Griffin and Excel, the No. 1 priority was the size of the guarantee. Under t
he terms of the contract, obtained by The Athletic, Griffin will receive a $12 m
illion signing bonus — $5 million up front, $3.5 million in 2027, $3.5 million
in 2028. His three arbitration years, worth a combined $39.5 million, would put
him near the top of the current arb market. His three free-agent years are worth
a combined $81.5 million, and the contract includes $10 million in escalators.
The Pirates initially offered eight years with two club options, a non-starter f
or Griffin’s camp, which did not want to delay his free agency until he was ent
ering his age-30 season. Excel was open to an eight-year deal with one club opti
on if the Pirates offered enough money. In a deal of that length, the Pirates mi
ght have gotten to $130 million, but not $140 million. So nine years it was, wit
h no options.
