Jose Trevino has secured a three-year, $14.9 million contract with the Cincinnati Reds, significantly increasing his annual earnings after being traded from the New York Yankees in December. The agreement grants Trevino $11.5 million in guaranteed money, ensuring his place as the Reds' starting catcher, especially with Tyler Stephenson out due to injury. Trevino is coming off a challenging season in which he hit .215 with eight home runs across 74 games, but his past accolades, including a Gold Glove and All-Star selection, highlight his potential.

This deal not only underscores Trevino's value but also positions the Reds to benefit from his experience and defensive skills during a season where they look to improve their standing in competitive MLB rankings.
