The Diamondbacks secured a significant six-year deal worth $210MM with Corbin Burnes, noting that $64MM of this sum will be deferred, impacting its present value.
Burnes' contract provides him a $10MM signing bonus, with a complex structure that involves deferred payments, an opt-out clause, and impressive no-trade rights.
Subject to an opt-out after the 2026 season, Burnes could earn $35MM annually for 2027-30, highlighting the financial flexibility and potential impact of his decision.
The Diamondbacks are reworking their rotation around Burnes, indicating a potential six-man starting staff which could complicate potential trades involving Jordan Montgomery.
