Adam Fantilli won’t have a contract extension in place before the start of the season, but it’s not a concern
Aaron Portzline of The Athletic: Adam Fantilli is entering the final season of his entry-level deal but there hasn’t been any contract negotiations with Fantilli’s agent.
“We’ve had no negotiations at all,” Waddell said. “I spoke with (Fantilli’s agent Pat) Brisson last week, and they’re in no hurry from their end.
It won’t get done before the season.”
That said, it shouldn’t be a concern for fans. If Fantilli has another good season, the sides could be more open to a long-term deal. There is also the rising cap to consider. Fantilli would be open to an offer sheet next July 1st.
