Well, let’s yak about this Yordan Alvarez fella and how much money he’s rakin’ in. They call it a “salary,” sounds fancy, but it just means how much the boy gets paid for hittin’ that ball and catchin’ it, I reckon.
Yordan Alvarez’s Big Money Contract
Now, they say Yordan, he signed a big ol’ contract with them Houston Astros. A contract, that’s like a promise on paper, sayin’ they’ll pay him a whole bunch of money and he’ll play ball for them. This contract, it’s for six years, and they promised him 115 million dollars! Can you believe that? 115 million! That’s more money than anyone in my family has ever seen, or even dreamt of.
- They gave him 5 million dollars just for signin’ on the dotted line, they call it a “signing bonus.” Fancy words for a whole lotta cash.
- Then, they pay him more each year. Next year, they say he’s gettin’ 7 million. Then 10 million the year after that. Then in 2025, he gets a big bump up to 15 million.
- And get this, from 2026 to 2028, he’ll be makin’ 26 million dollars a year! Twenty-six million! That’s enough to buy a whole town, I betcha.
So, if you average it all out, they say he’s makin’ around 19 million and some change every year. That’s more money than most folks make in a lifetime, workin’ their fingers to the bone. He must be one heck of a ball player, this Yordan.
Other Players and Their Pay
Now, Yordan ain’t the only one gettin’ paid big bucks to play ball. They got this other fella, Altuve, he’s got a contract too. His is even bigger, 125 million over seven years! He’s makin’ 30 million a year from 2025 to 2027! Land sakes, that’s a lot of money.
Then there’s Kyle Tucker. He didn’t get as much as them other boys at first, only 5 million last year, but now they’re payin’ him 12 million. That’s still a good chunk of change, wouldn’t you say?
And don’t forget about Jose Abreu. He got himself a 3-year contract for almost 60 million. That’s about 19 and a half million a year. Seems like everyone’s gettin’ rich playin’ this baseball game.
More Money If He’s Really Good
And get this, they say Yordan can make even MORE money if he plays really, really good. If he wins the MVP, the Most Valuable Player award, they give him a bonus. 1.5 million dollars for bein’ the best, can you imagine? Even if he comes in second, they still give him some extra cash. Seems like they’re just throwin’ money around like it ain’t no thing.
So, How Much is Yordan Worth?
So, they say Yordan’s salary, what he gets paid every year, is 7 million right now. But with all them bonuses and future money comin’ his way, they figure he’s worth close to 119 million dollars! That’s a whole lotta dough. I don’t know about you, but that’s more money than I can even fathom. It’s a good thing he’s good at hittin’ that ball, I guess. Otherwise, that’s just a waste of good money. Lord have mercy.
Summing It All Up
So, there you have it. Yordan Alvarez, he’s a baseball player, and he gets paid a whole heap of money to play baseball. He signed a big contract, and he’s set to make millions and millions of dollars over the next few years. Him and lots of other fellas playin’ this game are rollin’ in dough. Good for them, I say, good for them. It’s a lot more than most folks make, that’s for sure.
Anyways, that’s the story of Yordan Alvarez and his money. He plays ball and they pay him a lot, simple as that.
