Brewers Bet Big on Cooper Pratt with Eight-Year Extension

The Milwaukee Brewers are reportedly finalizing an eight-year, $50.75 million extension for 21-year-old shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt, with two club options (~$15M per year) and escalators, keeping him under team control for about a decade even if he spends time in the minors. Pratt, a Boras client who has not yet played in the majors and just debuted at Triple-A, is the rare pre-arbitration extension for a top prospect, signaling Milwaukee’s belief in his future defense and potential offensive development. The deal could affect 40-man roster moves and arbitration timing, and may influence infield planning with Turang, Ortiz, Made, Pena, and Williams, possibly shaping future trades if infield logistics change.

Cubs Lock In Nico Hoerner With Six-Year Extension

The Chicago Cubs signed infielder Nico Hoerner to a six-year extension that runs through 2032 (starting in 2027); terms weren’t disclosed. Hoerner, 29, has been a core contributor with strong defense at second, speed on the bases, and a contact-heavy bat, posting solid offensive and fWAR outputs since 2022. The deal solidifies the Cubs’ core as they navigate 2026–27 roster turnover and consider future roles for prospects like Matt Shaw, while already-committed stars Swanson, Bregman and PCA remain in place.

Seahawks Lock Up Jaxon Smith-Njigba With Multiyear Extension

The Seattle Seahawks signed star wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba to a multi-year extension after a breakout 2025 season in which he led the NFL with 1,793 receiving yards on 119 receptions and 10 TDs, following a 2024 Pro Bowl campaign of 1,130 yards on 100 receptions. The 14-3 Seahawks rode his production to a Super Bowl LX title, and the extension locks Smith-Njigba in Seattle for years as he called the city home and thanked the organization and community.

Cubs Weigh Nico Hoerner Extension as Free-Agency Looms

The Cubs are weighing a long‑term extension for Nico Hoerner after his career year, but a deal may be delayed as his impending free agency raises the price tag and payroll questions. Ken Rosenthal framed Hoerner as a test of the Cubs’ willingness to spend, and while a Peters Crow-Armstrong extension could be more likely, Chicago is also considering internal options (like Matt Shaw and Jefferson Rojas) as possible replacements. No immediate Hoerner extension is expected this week.

Cubs Lock Up PCA on 6-Year, $115M Deal Through 2032

The Chicago Cubs signed center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong to a six-year, $115 million extension starting in 2027, buying out four arbitration years (2027–2030) and two free-agent years (2031–2032) with no club option, effectively keeping PCA in Chicago through 2032; ESPN noted it as the biggest guaranteed extension for a player with five years of club control without an option, and the deal could rise to about $133 million with incentives.

Cubs Lock Up PCA With Long-Term Extension, Cementing Elite Center-Field Defense

The Cubs are finalizing a long-term extension with star center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong, locking up a premier defensive cornerstone after a breakout 2025 season (31 homers, 72 extra-base hits, 35 steals) and strong defensive metrics. While his offensive approach remains aggressive with questions about consistency against lefties, his ceiling makes him a central piece for Chicago’s competitive window, per ESPN's Jeff Passan.

49ers skip Trent Williams option as cap hit rises, extension talks loom

The 49ers did not exercise a $10 million option bonus for Trent Williams, raising his 2025 cap hit from about $38 million to over $47 million. The team plans to rework his deal before the NFL Draft, with an extension expected to save roughly $16.8 million in cap space for 2026 (about $15.7 million via restructuring) and push Williams toward a higher guarantees tier once a new contract is reached.

Rams near record-setting extension for Trent McDuffie

The Los Angeles Rams and Trent McDuffie are close to finalizing a contract extension that would make him the NFL’s highest-paid cornerback at over $30 million per season, per NFL Network insiders, days after his blockbuster trade from Kansas City. The deal would follow his 2026 fifth-year option of $13.63 million and would cement him as a defensive centerpiece for a Rams title run, as several corners already sit on $100 million+ deals.
