@moneybehindsports: $9.4 million. That's what William Contreras makes in 2026, and he's the World Series MVP. He hit .381 against Tampa Bay, and today Milwaukee throws its first World Series parade (11 AM ET). The hidden rule: the Brewers hold a $14.5 million club option on him for 2027. If he finishes top four in this year's NL MVP voting, it becomes a mutual option, so he gets a say too. Should Milwaukee pay him $14.5 million?
