As part of our constant, unwavering (some might say neurotic) efforts to make RosterResource the clearinghouse for everything baseball related, we’ve added contract incentive data to our Team Payroll pages and created a separate Payroll Incentives table.

Let’s walk through the new features, using Matt Strahm’s current contract as an example. In March of 2024, Strahm signed a one-year, $7.5 million extension with the Phillies covering the 2025 season. The contract also included a $4.5 million vesting option for 2026, which could increase by as much as $3 million for reaching 40, 50, and 60 innings pitched in 2025; Strahm exceeded all of those thresholds, throwing 62.1 innings. After the option vested, Strahm was traded to the Royals. Read the rest of this entry »

It’s been quite a while since we produced new FanGraphs apparel, and this time, we decided to try something completely different.

We partnered with clothing brand Ellsworth & Ivy to make The Retro FanGraphs Sweatshirt and The Women’s FanGraphs Quarterzip Sweater. The first (and possibly last) run of these is quite limited, with about 50 sweatshirts and 30 sweaters available. We had no budget for models, either, so you’re stuck with the Appelmans to get a sense of what these look like.

The Retro FanGraphs Sweatshirt has fully stitched chenille lettering and a stitched logo near the bottom hem:

The Women’s FanGraphs Quarterzip Sweater also has fully stitched chenille lettering and a stitched logo on the sleeve:

We think they look pretty sharp, and provide a slightly more dressed up look than our standard hoodie.

The Retro Sweatshirt is $90 and the Women’s Quarterzip Sweater is $120. They’re both available for sale now and ready to ship!
