The Washington Nationals are the kings of deferred money. Max Scherzer is a free agent after this season. The Nationals owe him $15 million in deferred money from 2022-2028. Stephen Stasburg is signed through 2026. On July 1 in 2027, 2028 and 202 9 he get $26,666,667 plus interest payment of $3,999,974 on 12/31/29 Patrick Corbin is signed through 2024. The Nationals owe him $10 million in deferred money any time between Nov 2024 and Jan 2026. Brad Hand signed a 1 year deal this year. He is owed $1.5M on 1/15/22, $3.5M on 1/15/23, $1.5M on 1/15/24. in deferred money. Spotrac is one of my favorite sites and if you poke around, you'll find these types of arrangements for pretty much every team. Some are more egregious than others. The Strasburg one will probably sting at the end of the day. He's as talented as anyone else, and was instrumental in their WS run thus resulting in the contract reward he got, but he just cannot stay healthy and there's no reason to think he'll be able to right that ship any time soon. The wind blows lightly, and he's out for 8 weeks.
