Point of order: Votto wasn’t extended at all.

same for hamilton

Yes they were…may have been arb eligible but were not under contract until extended. Extension doesn’t have to mean FA years were bought.

I think that’s exactly what it means (respectfully, though). Hamilton and Votto were both under contract to play for their respective teams even though they were arbitration eligible. They are not contractually obligated to play for those teams any longer now, they just have guaranteed monetary compensation.
