Edwin Díaz’s three-year, $69 million deal with the Dodgers includes a conditional team option for 2029 worth $6.5 million.
Presumably, that will only kick if Díaz suffers a specific injury that costs him most or all of one of the next three seasons. Should that happen, the Mets could keep him around at a nice discount for one extra year. Díaz’s deal includes a $9 million signing bonus and salaries of $14 million next season and $23 million in 2027 and ’28. $4.5 million will be deferred each season.
