McNeil is entering the final guaranteed season of the four-year, $50MM extension he signed during the 2023-24 offseason. He's set for a $15.75MM salary and guaranteed a $2MM buyout on a matching club option for the '27 season. It's essentially a one-year, $17.75MM commitment. (An acquiring team would also owe him a $500K assignment bonus.) That's more than he'd get on the open market coming off a .243/.335/.411 line and heading into his age-34 season. Something like a two-year deal in the $18-20MM range would be reasonable, but he wouldn't command that kind of money on a one-year term.
