Phils SS Jimmy Rollins agreed to a 5-year $40 million contract extension that will keep him with the club until 2010 and the Phillis have an $8.5 million option for 2011 with a $2 million buyout. Here's a link to the article on phillies.com
The Phils front office has finally started doing their job. 2 moves in a row that I like. The Polanco trade looks like it was the right move (though it would have been nice to move him to 3rd and get rid of Bell) and I like locking up Rollins, who would have been a free agent after 2006.
