Remaining with Yankees Cole will remain with the Yankees on the four-year, $144 million contract he had previously opted out of, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Although, it's expected the two sides will continue to negotiate a contract extension, possibly tacking a year onto the end of the pitcher's current deal. Cole posted a 3.41 ERA and 1.13 WHIP across 95 innings this season following a two-month absence due to an elbow injury.

Exercises opt-out Cole opted out of his contract with the Yankees on Saturday, Kiley McDaniel of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The Yankees have the opportunity to void Cole's opt-out decision by adding an extra year and $36 million to his contract, which would cause him to be owed $180 million through 2029. The 34-year-old posted a 3.41 ERA and 1.13 WHIP across 95 innings this season after missing the first couple of months due to an elbow injury, so there is no guarantee that New York will want to keep him around for such a hefty price.
