$2.5 million for Luke Weaver
The Bronx Bombers have decided to exercise their option for pitcher Luke Weaver for $2.5 million of the contract, ensuring they will have his services until 2025.
Luke Weaver dazzled last season in the MLB, maintaining a 2.89 ERA with 103 strikeouts in 84.0 innings of work in which he appeared; as if that were not enough, in his last 11.0 innings, Weaver allowed just one run and only four hits, striking out 24 batters.
He served as a sort of anteroom for closer Clay Holmes and then took on that role, in some appearances, from September
For the playoffs, he had an outstanding participation from the bullpen, as he saved four games and dressed as a hero with a victory; in 15.1 innings of the postseason, including the World Series, he had an earned run average of 1.76. Reasons why the Manhattan Mules decided to bet on his continuity in the team.
