Carrasco agreed to a four-year extension with the Indians on Sunday, Jeff Passan of Yahoo! Sports reports.
Carrasco's new deal, effective in 2016, will cover two arbitration years, two of his upcoming free agency years, and grant the club options on two more years following that. The 28-year-old had a strong 2014 campaign in Cleveland, tossing 134 innings that resulted in an 8-7 record, 2.55 ERA and MLB career-best 9.4 K/9. He's expected to follow 2014 Cy Young Award winner Corey Kluber in the rotation, and will now be a mainstay in that group for several years to come.
