I'm financially literate and have way more than I need to retire, however, you guys and baseball contracts are 10 levels above normal human processing.

Of all the catchers with at least 80 plate appearances in 2025, He ranked 40th in Avg. 30th in OBP, 53rd in in OPS and 49th in fWAR. Last year they paid Garver 11 million more to rank 50th, 33rd, 39th and 51st in those respective categories. Not a super sexy signing but he seems to project out as a...
