The Milwaukee Brewers and star outfielder Christian Yelich are finalizing a contract extension worth around $215 million that will keep him with the team through the 2028 season, sources told Jeff Passan of ESPN.

There's also a mutual option for the 2029 campaign, Passan adds.

The extension is expected to be announced Friday, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic.

Yelich is currently signed through 2021 with a club option for 2022. His new deal will eliminate the club option and add seven years, sources told Rosenthal.

There will reportedly be deferred money, and the average annual value during the seven years is around $27 million per season.

The 28-year-old was named the 2018 National League MVP and finished as the runner-up in 2019 after a knee injury ended his season in September. He owns a career .301/.383/.492 slash line with 139 home runs across seven major-league campaigns spent with the Brewers and Miami Marlins.

Prior to the two-time All-Star's reported extension, the largest deal in Brewers' history was a five-year, $105-million pact given to current teammate Ryan Braun.

The move is a significant development for Milwaukee after losing catcher Yasmani Grandal and infielder Mike Moustakas to free agency during the offseason.
