PHOENIX — Corbin Burnes and the Arizona Diamondbacks have agreed to a $210 million, six-year contract, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press late Friday night.
The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the deal was pending a successful physical.
The 30-year-old Burnes was perhaps the top free agent pitcher on the market after going 15-9 with a 2.92 ERA for Baltimore last season. The Orioles acquired the right-hander in a February trade after he spent his first six major league seasons with the Milwaukee Brewers.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have reportedly reached a major agreement with pitcher Corbin Burnes, signing him to a lucrative $210 million, 6-year deal. This news comes from a source close to the situation, according to the Associated Press.
Burnes, who had a standout season in 2021 with the Milwaukee Brewers, is expected to be a key addition to the Diamondbacks’ pitching rotation. The 27-year-old right-hander posted impressive numbers last season, including a 2.43 ERA and 234 strikeouts in 167 innings pitched.
This massive contract solidifies Burnes as one of the highest-paid pitchers in the league and demonstrates the Diamondbacks’ commitment to building a strong team for the upcoming season. Fans can look forward to seeing Burnes take the mound in Arizona’s colors and hopefully lead the team to success in the years to come.
