Terry Collins Recieves 2 Year Contract Extension

The Mets announced this morning that manager Terry Collins will be getting a 2 year contract extension through the 2017 season. He will be making slightly more than $1 million per season. I think this is a very fair extension. TC has earned it for the tremendous job he did this year. Hopefully next year, he will receive his first World Series ring.
