 | Sunday, September 27th, 1936: Rochester Re-Signs Star C Hooker to $292,500 Extension
Jesse Hooker might be greedy, but there's no disputing his talent. The hotshot catcher will pocket $292,500 after re-signing with the Red Wings earlier today, and will hang around another 4 years.
Some more financially prudent fans worried that the signing would burden the club down the road and might prevent it from being competitive, though many others were simply thankful that Hooker didn't bolt.
Currently Hooker is batting .316 with 4 home runs and 48 RBIs.
