Saw it on MLB Trade Rumors and followed the link they provided.

So the Bravos get one or two (not sure which; McCann's got 1.5 years of service) additional years of an awsome C plus an option for another year. The price looks right to me, too. ;-D

Late Thursday morning, the Braves announced that they had agreed to terms on a six-year, $27.8 million contract extension with McCann that includes an option for the 2013 season

Well he will definatley be worth it. I like the deal!

Wow... He offered them the chance to convert the last guaranteed year to an option year so that they can dump him if he sucks or is hurt.

That's crazy loyalty. 8-o

This is a good deal for McCann too.

Any catcher should jump all over a longer term deal

They can either look into moving him to first...use him as depth...or use him as trading bait.

He is most valuable as trade bait now.
