, a conditional sixth year is also in the deal that would make the total value of the contract worth $222 million. The average annual value of the contract is tabbed at $37 million.
His signature is just the latest big-ticket signing for a Rangers team that continues to rebuild by investing remarkable funds into its ranks. Last year, they spent roughly half a billion dollars on Corey Seager and Marcus Semien. Now deGrom gives them an undisputed ace to anchor a rotation with.
