Myers' option vests if he reaches 200 innings
Brett Myers - S - Cleveland Indians
Feb. 11, 2013 - 1:50 AM ET
Brett Myers' $8 million option for 2014 will become guaranteed if he pitches 200 innings this season.
Myers would also need to pass a physical after the season, but because it's a vesting option, the Indians won't have total control over whether it gets picked up. Prior to being used as a reliever last year, Myers had back-to-back seasons of 200-plus innings with the Astros, so he should have a realistic chance of hitting that benchmark again if he can stay healthy.
