Andrew McCutchen, Milwaukee Brewers agree to deal, sources say

Outfielder Andrew McCutchen and the Milwaukee Brewers are in agreement on a contract, sources familiar with the deal told ESPN's Jeff Passan on Monday, confirming a report by El Extrabase.

McCutchen became a free agent when the Philadelphia Phillies declined a club option for the 2022 season in November.

McCutchen had signed a $50 million, three-year contract with Philadelphia in December 2018. With the option declined, he got a $3 million buyout instead of a $15 million salary.

McCutchen hit .237 with 47 homers and 143 RBIs in three seasons in Philadelphia.
