ST PETERSBURG, Fla. — Dominican outfielder Manuel Margot has agreed to a two-year, $19 million deal with the Tampa Bay Rays.
The agreement, which both sides reached on Tuesday, includes a salary of $7 million in 2023, an increase from the $5.6 million the 27-year-old Dominican will earn this season, as well as $10 million for 2024. It also includes a mutual option of 12 million for 2025 and a payment of 2 million to terminate the contract.
Margot would have been eligible for free agency at the end of the season.
He arrived via trade from the San Diego Padres in February 2020 and has played three outfield positions in two years with the Rays.
He hit a .254 average with 10 home runs and 57 RBIs last season.
