According to the Associated Press, Norichika Aoki's two-year deal with the Brewers includes a $1.5 million club option for 2014 or a $250,000 buyout. Aoki agreed to a two-year, $2.5 million contract with the Brewers last week which includes a $1 million salary for 2012 and a $1.25 million salary for 2013. If the 2014 option is exercised and he makes at least 140 starts and has 150 games played per season, he will make $8,187,500 over the life of the contract. It's unlikely that will happen, as the Brewers view him as a reserve outfielder.
