THIS IS SO CRAZY: Pittsburgh Pirates Legend Andrew McCutchen Just Rejected a $119.67 Million Contract Offer — Here’s Why

Hold on to your peanuts and Cracker Jacks, baseball fans — this one’s a wild pitch you didn’t see coming. Pittsburgh Pirates icon and five-time All-Star Andrew McCutchen has reportedly turned down a jaw-dropping $119.67 million contract offer from an undisclosed team, and the baseball world is in absolute shock.

The mysterious mega-deal, allegedly offered by a major-market team (rumors swirling around the New York Mets and the Los Angeles Dodgers), was enough to send the sports rumor mill into a frenzy. But here’s the kicker: McCutchen said no. As in “thanks, but no thanks” — to nearly $120 million.

Wait… Why Would He Say No?

According to sources close to the situation (aka one guy on Reddit who swears he saw McCutchen at a Whole Foods), the 38-year-old veteran isn’t in it for the money anymore. “He’s all about legacy, family, and finishing where he started,” said one fan wearing a 2013 McCutchen jersey. “He bleeds black and gold.”

McCutchen, who returned to Pittsburgh in 2023 to an emotional homecoming, has made it clear he wants to end his career as a Pirate. Despite his age, the veteran slugger has still been contributing on and off the field, serving as a mentor to younger players and a walking nostalgia reel for fans.

Fans React: “That’s Our Cutch”

As the news spread across social media like a rogue home run in left field, fans lit up X (formerly Twitter) with reactions ranging from disbelief to pride.

“$119 million??? My man just said ‘nah, I’m good’ and walked off with a sunflower seed in his mouth. Legend.”

“McCutchen rejecting that money proves what we already knew — he’s not just a great player, he’s a Pirate for life.”
— @SteelCityQueen

What’s Next for McCutchen?

With retirement on the horizon — and his legacy already firmly cemented in Pittsburgh lore — McCutchen appears to be writing his final chapter on his own terms. Whether he’s playing, coaching, or simply throwing out the first pitch at every home opener from now on, he’ll always be a hero in the Steel City.

And the $119.67 million? Some team will find another way to spend it.

But as for McCutchen? He’s rich in loyalty — and sometimes, that’s worth more than any contract.
