Since 2018, Aaron Nola has sat at the top of the rotation of the St. Louis River Walkers.
And while he has remained among the best in the business, the now 31-year-old Nola has seen a drop in his performance over the past three seasons.
So when he asked for a contract worth $20 million plys a season for multiple campaigns, the Walkers decided to balk.
The result was the former Cy Young winner inking a five-year deal worth $107 million with the just crowned World Series-champion Detroit Wheelmen.
The fans are not happy, but in some ways Nola was maybe the Walkers' third and fourth best starter in 2024.
Hanging on to him for a hefty price tag through 2029 did not seem worth it.
