While running a program on the MLB network, former Mets CEO, Steve Phillips, said the Yankees should definitely re-enroll DJ LeMahieu, because he made it clear that he is the most important hitter on the team in the last two years.
The former executive also commented on the figure that the Bronx board should provide LeMahieu, so he agreed to wear the striped uniform again. According to Phillips, New York has to pay in the All-Star game about $ 72 million over four years.
If we consider the amount that DJLM and its agent agency would claim, the offer that Phillips proposes would be much below what LeMahieu is asking for, whose player would ask for a contract of over 100 million dollars.
It is worth mentioning that “LeMachine”, as the 32-year-old veteran is also known, won $ 24 million for the two seasons he played with New York, however, given the number its huge offense, its commercial value has increased considerably. because he’s at his best since playing in the Big Top.
