Lopez signed a four-year, $73.5 million contract extension with the Twins on Friday.
It was reported earlier this week that the extension was nearing the finish line and it's now been officially announced. Lopez had been set to enter free agency following the 2024 campaign, but he'll now remain in Minnesota through 2027. The right-hander boasts a 1.73 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 33:6 K:BB across 26 innings through his first four starts this season.
