JUPITER, Fla. • In what’s become something of a spring tradition — though this time with an early-bloom twist, the Cardinals have reached an agreement on a contract extension with one of their young players, giving him security and the team cost-certainty for years to come.
Paul DeJong and the club have agreed to a contract extension that was finalized Monday morning when DeJong passed a physical, two sources have confirmed. An announcement is expected at 10:45 a.m. St. Louis time.
The contract, which was first reported Monday morning by The Post-Dispatch, guarantees him $26 million for the next six years, a source confirmed.
