Jul 5, 2014 1:12 AM
The Athletics have officially locked up right-hander Trevor Cahill with a five-year contract extension.
He is set to earn a guaranteed $30.5 million through those years. The agreement also includes club options for both the 2016 and 2017 seasons, valued at $13 million and $13.5 million, respectively.
If the options are exercised the deal will take Cahill to age 30.
"I'm guaranteed to pitch here for a while, so I couldn't be happier," Cahill said. "There's no place I'd rather play."
Cahill's 2011 salary entering the season was a mere $440,000.
