I mean his salary would be about the same give or take a couple million anyway since its for part of his arbitration years. I think some people around here forget how the arbitration system actually works!
April 14, 20224 yr Also the Reynolds extension is only for his first 2 years of arbitration anyway. He will still have 2 more arbitration years after this deal is up. So whatever.

But it can jump year to year. 12 hours ago, mystikol87 said: And if he has a terrible year, they'll have to pay him more than he otherwise might have gotten in arbitration. Perhaps, though I feel figures usually don't drop year to year.

He wont, mostly because he is in Pittsburgh. But ya. Year 1 (super 2) and Year 2 of arbitration the salary he will make in this contract is within 2-3 million if not less of what he would make next year if he had a similar season this year. It's not really rocket science how you get your salaries via arbitration along with your demands and all.
