Won't be hard getting a FAT contract. The Brewers know what kind of talent they have.

I want him to command more than Milwaukee has...and then the Rangers slide in...

He is a free agent after 2017, three more seasons. He will be 31, probably in line for a contract similar to Brian McCann got last year, five years $85 million.

I think the 2017 year is a club option with a $250,000 buyout. I'm wondering if the buyout if for the player.

I found this article on trying to evaluating Lucroy and estimating is value in the MLB marketplace. It's pretty good.

Come on Boomer. You know it should be The University of Lucroy. UL for short.

I wonder if he can negotiate to have the Brewers build UL a new state of the art baseball park as part of his contract?

My understanding is the club has the option of paying the negotiated salary in 2017 or buying him out and letting him go. Since his 2017 salary of $5.4 million is way under market value at this point, they will likely keep him.

As the article noted above http://disciplesofuecker.com/revisit...ys-value/21932, the club might try to extend him, but it will be expensive, maybe too much for Milwaukee, especially since the last guy they extended, Braun, blew up in their face. The Brewers have him at a huge discount for about five years. Jon may end up with a big market team in 2018 for big $$$.

Don't know if this has been posted already, but Lucroy is not only turning heads, MLB is starting to study his mechanics.
