Milwaukee Brewers All-Star catcher William Contreras avoided salary arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract on Thursday.

Financial terms were not disclosed by the team, which holds a club option for the 2027 season. The New York Post, however, reported the deal is worth $9.4 million and the club option is $14.5 million.

Contreras, 28, also avoided arbitration last season and signed a one-year, $6.1 million deal. He batted .260 with 17 homers and 76 RBIs in 150 games in 2025.

A two-time All-Star, Contreras is batting .273 with 85 homers and 315 RBIs in 599 games with the Atlanta Braves (2020-22) and Brewers.
