Hope you all find this information helpful! I got inspired to compile this after having difficulty finding it all in a single place. I’ve pulled all of the data from various sources, and while I cannot attest to its completeness, the table provides a fairly comprehensive look at the longest contracts for each Major League Baseball team.
If you find something I am missing or incorrect data, please drop me a comment so I can add/change. As time allows, I may expand or create a separate page for each team. But for now, I am happy to have this much contract information on a single page for my personal (and yours!) reference.
