According to Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic, the Diamondbacks have extended Dan Haren’s contract for an additional two years while adding an option year after that. The old contract is nullified. Here’s a look at his contract now:
- 2009: $7.5MM
- 2010: $8.25MM
- 2011: $12.75MM
- 2012: $12.75MM
- 2013: $15.5MM option
Haren turns 28 in September; he reliably provides 220 innings with an ERA below 4.00 (this year, below 3.00).
