Edwin Diaz inked a 5-year, 102 million dollar contract with the NY Mets in the past offseason. Still, almost 27 million dollars of it was deferred, giving it a present-day value in the neighborhood of 93 million dollars.<\/p>\n<p>Houston\u2019s contract with Josh comes on the heels of news that Kendall Graveman, 1 of the organization\u2019s principal high-leverage relievers, would be sidelined for the upcoming campaign after a shoulder procedure. However, with Hader, the Astros are definitely among the favorites for the World Series, as they were 1 victory away from clinching the trophy a few months ago.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Josh Hader has reportedly agreed to spend the next five years in Houston.<\/p>\n<p>Astros fans hope they look a lot like his last five years. \ud83d\udc40 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/XlGW0lHd3R\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/XlGW0lHd3R<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 MLB (@MLB) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MLB\/status\/1748518690725769452?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">January 20, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All-Star closer Josh Hader gave a green light for a 5-year, 95 million dollar deal with the Houston Astros today, significantly improving a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4225,"featured_media":476468,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"tags":[16729,17863],"news_category":[16708],"gn_keywords":[18539,22576,12402],"acf":{"announce":"Josh agreed to a new long-term deal with Houston.","video":[]},"rank_math_focus_keyword":"","rank_math_description":"","rank_math_title":"","rank_math_robots":"","rank_math_canonical_url":"","rank_math_facebook_title":"","rank_math_facebook_description":"","rank_math_facebook_image":"","rank_math_twitter_title":"","rank_math_twitter_description":"","rank_math_twitter_image":"","rank_math_snippet_shortcode":"","rank_math_primary_category":"","rankmath_seo":{"focus_keyword":"","description":"","title":"","canonical_url":"","robots":"","facebook":{"title":"","description":"","image":""},"twitter":{"title":"","description":"","image":""}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/476467"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4225"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=476467"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/476467\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":476470,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/476467\/revisions\/476470"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/476468"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=476467"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=476467"},{"taxonomy":"news_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news_category?post=476467"},{"taxonomy":"gn_keywords","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/7sport.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gn_keywords?post=476467"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
