Here is an article from last year when he signed an extension. Keep in mind he just got extended this week another year.
But the buyout is for $9 mil. It begins to fall starting on 1/14/22.
So first you start with buying out Manny, probably around $2-4 mil, then you pay Oregon for Mario $9 mil, so you are $12-13 million in the hole already before you give Mario a contract. With incentives Mario's contract could be as much as $7 mill ($4.75 mil base) per year. Think Miami has to match that for say 6 years. Then staffing allowance. Yeah we are talking a lot of moolah. But if you want to be big time, you have to step up.
