It's tough finding comps for closers, and I'm not entirely sure what to value Davis based on his age (30). Given recent history of hard throwing closers, I suspect I'll under pay for a year and over pay for a year on a 3 year deal...perhaps that evens out. Last year Robertson was the top closer resigned at $7.3 mil over 4 years. He was expected to be a high level closer at the time, so helpful but not exactly equal. In a rather meaningless piece of information, a similar league had the new Yankee closer Chapman signed this year at $8 mil for 3 years. Seems about right based on very limited data, so I'll go with that number here.
P Wade Davis $8,000,000 (2016 NTC) (2018)
current deal is $300,000 (2015)

approval 1
Davis is 30 with a lot of miles on his arm so I'm fine with this. I probably would have been fine with even $6-$7 million
