Previously, Dodgers starting pitcher Zack Greinke told reporters to check in with him about his contract, which has an opt out clause that goes into effect after the 2015 season, when spring training rolled around.
Now that it's here, he said he won't have an answer until this coming season is finished.
"Maybe it’s just a question that you guys ask me because I answer some questions I shouldn’t," Greinke said, via the Los Angeles Times. "But it seems to be a pretty obvious thing that it’s something that you don’t talk about. The teams have options all the time. They don’t comment before the season ends if they’re going to accept or decline a player’s contract. You’re always weighing things as they go and no one’s going to accept before they need to or decline a contract before they need to because so many things can happen. So I won’t have any answers until the season’s over.
Greinke has $71 million remaining after this year on his current deal that runs through 2018. It's likely he'd command much more than that in the open market if he were to become a free agent.
