Seattle Mariners allegedly inked Colt Emerson to an eight-year contract extension valued at $95 million with a club option for a ninth year; it guarantees Emerson guaranteed money before a debut prior to his MLB debut; escalators that could push value higher may raise the total beyond $130 million. Made public on, the extension keeps him in Seattle’s plans while he stays in the minors at first; Emerson was added to Seattle's 40-man roster. That decision sets a record for a pre-debut player, showing the club's bold bet on his potential.
