KRIV-TV, citing Major League Baseball sources, reported that the Astros have added an option year to their original offer of $70 million over five years to Beltran. According to KRIV, the sixth year would be worth $14 million to Beltran or a buyout of $5 million if the Astros do not pick up the option.
The Astros made their initial offer on Dec. 6, and revised the offer during a face-to-face meeting with Beltran and his agent, Scott Boras, on Dec. 22 at Houston's Spring Training facility in Kissimmee, Fla. A day earlier, Beltran and Boras met with New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner, president Randy Levine and general manager Brian Cashman in Tampa.
