CelebNSports247.com reports that Washington Nationals righty pitcher Stephen Strasburg couldn’t be happier, he just signed a major deal.

Stephen Strasburg just inked a seven-year, $245 million contract, per ESPN’s Jeff Passan.

Strasburg, who opted out with $100 million left on his deal after the 2019 season, earned himself an almost $150 million raise. The deal will pay him through his age 37 season.

Strasburg has always either been hurt or good with the Nationals: In 2019, he pitched to a 3.32 ERA over 209 innings (led the NL), a 3.25 FIP, 1.038 WHIP and 251 strikeouts, reports Sporting News.

However, the deal comes with a caveat, per the New York Post’s Joel Sherman, by way of deferred money.

Sorry, San Diego fans but it’s clear that Stephen was Washington’s No. 1 choice to return in free agency.
