Alright, let’s talk about this Jazz Chisholm fella and his money, you know, the contract thing. I heard folks jabberin’ about it, so I figured I’d try to make sense of it all, even though this baseball stuff ain’t exactly my cup of tea. But money, well, that’s somethin’ everyone understands, right?
So, from what I gather, this young man, Jazz Chisholm, plays baseball for the Miami Marlins. Miami Marlins, that’s down in Florida, hot place. Anyways, they say he’s got himself a new contract for the year 2024. Now, this contract, it ain’t no small potatoes. They’re talkin’ about millions of dollars, can you believe it? Makes my head spin just thinkin’ about it.
They say his salary for this year is gonna be $2,625,000. That’s two million, six hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars! That’s a whole lotta money, I tell ya. Last year, in 2023, he made some money too, but it wasn’t as much. Somethin’ like $749,500, they say. Plus, he got some extra money, like a bonus or somethin’, ‘cause he did good, I guess. That was another $307,518. So, all together, last year he got over a million dollars. Still a lot, but this year, he’s gettin’ way more.
Now, this contract, it’s just for one year. That means they gotta figure out how much to pay him again next year. It’s called “arbitration,” somethin’ like that. Sounds fancy, but it just means they gotta haggle over his pay again. He can do that again in 2025 too. And then, after 2026, he can go off and play for whoever he wants, be a “free agent” they call it.
- 2024 Salary: $2,625,000
- 2023 Total Earnings: $1,057,018
- 2023 Salary:$749,500
- 2023 Incentive:$307,518
- 2022 Earnings:$718,000
- 2021 Earnings:$571,750
This here contract, it’s guaranteed money, see? That means even if he gets hurt or somethin’ and can’t play, they still gotta pay him. That’s a good deal for him, I reckon. He don’t have to worry none about not gettin’ paid. They also say he played in 124 games last year and hit .248 with 20 doubles. Now, I don’t know much about baseball numbers, but it sounds like he did alright.
They also talk about his “net worth”. That’s how much money he’s got, I guess. They say it’s around $2,323,000. That’s a lot of money for a young fella. I hope he’s savin’ some of it, not just spendin’ it all on fancy cars and such. You never know what the future holds, ya know? Gotta be prepared.
So, that’s the gist of it, this Jazz Chisholm contract. He’s gettin’ paid a whole heap of money to play baseball. Good for him, I say. As long as he’s workin’ hard and doin’ his best, he deserves it. It’s a tough world out there, and makin’ a livin’ ain’t easy. So, if you can get a good contract like that, you gotta grab it with both hands and hold on tight.
And that’s all I gotta say about that. This baseball business is complicated, but money, well, money’s money. And this young fella’s got a whole lotta it, at least for this year. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go tend to my garden. Them tomatoes ain’t gonna water themselves, ya know.
