Fantasy Impact:
Yelich, 28, is still under control on a team-friendly contract for three more seasons, so this extension likely combines a big payday for the player with some added, affordable control for the team. Despite having his 2019 season cut short by a fractured kneecap, Yelich batted .3209 with 100 runs scored, 44 home runs, 97 RBI, and 30 stolen bases in just 130 games.
