ATLANTA - The Atlanta Braves and shortstop Andrelton Simmons agreed on a $58 million, seven-year contract on Thursday, a record deal for the latest young star locked up by the NL East champions. Dave Twardzik Jersey . The deal, which runs through the 2020 season, is the largest ever awarded to a player subject to American draft rules with less than two years of service time. Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo signed a $41 million, seven-year contract last May. Simmons, 24, showed power potential in 2013, when he hit 17 home runs, but he earned the big contract with his defence. He won his first Gold Glove award in 2013, when he led the major leagues with 499 assists. "We feel that Andrelton is one of the premier shortstops in the game today, and we are happy that we were able to agree on this multiyear contract," general manager Frank Wren said in a statement released by the team. The Braves this month also reached multiyear agreements with first baseman Freddie Freeman, outfielder Jason Heyward, closer Craig Kimbrel and right-hander Julio Teheran, committing $280.7 million to the rising stars, including Simmons. Simmons hit .248 and drove in 59 runs last season. He earned the new contract after playing in only 206 career games. Simmons received a $1 million signing bonus and will earn $1 million this season. He will earn $3 million in 2015, $6 million in 2016, $8 million in 2017, $11 million in 2018, $13 million in 2019 and $15 million in 2020. It has been a busy month for the Braves and Wren. On Sunday, the team agreed to a $42 million, four-year contract with Kimbrel, 25, the All-Star closer. That came two days after the 23-year-old Teheran agreed to terms on a six-year, $32.4 million deal. Earlier this month, the Braves announced multiyear deals with a pair of 24-year-old hitters — Freeman and Heyward. Freeman, the All-Star first baseman, agreed to the biggest contract in Braves history — $135 million for eight years. Of all the new deals, only Heywards is for fewer than four years. Heyward, the outfielder who won his first Gold Glove in 2012, signed for two years and $13.3 million. Even management has been included in the wave of new deals. Manager Fredi Gonzalez and Wren also have been given contract extensions. Simmons ranks with Freeman, Kimbrel, Teheran, Heyward, Justin Upton, left-hander Mike Minor and others as the foundation for the Braves future. Chipper Jones retired after the 2012 season, and Tim Hudson and catcher Brian McCann departed as free agents after last season, leaving the team that won 96 games last year with a young roster. Simmons hit only .216 against left-handers last season, and he hit only .219 in 283 at-bats as a leadoff hitter. The team took off when Heyward was moved to the leadoff spot, and Simmons was more productive in other spots in the lineup. Jerome Kersey Jersey .

Friday nights stop in Columbus is the start of a seven-game, 12-day trip for Vancouver, which is an excellent 8-3-0 on the road this season. The Canucks finished up a 2-0-1 homestand with Tuesdays 2-0 win over the New Jersey Devils, with Ryan Miller making 20 saves for his second shutout of the season and 31st of his career. Alex Burrows and Shawn Matthias supplied the goals for the Canucks, who won for the eighth time in their last 10 games (8-1-1) on a night the team honored Pat Quinn. Quinn, an original member of the franchise, died on Sunday at the age of 71. He played two seasons in Vancouver during his nine-year NHL career, then later served as head coach and general manager, racking up a 141-111-28 record and taking the club to the Stanley Cup Finals in 1994. Quinn took home the Jack Adams Trophy as the leagues top coach that year. That was a game we wanted to win. We had a good start ... Lots of guys have played hard, and thats all you can ask for, admitted Canucks head coach Willie Desjardins. The Canucks arent scheduled to play at home again until Dec. 13 and stand a solid chance at getting their road trip off to a good start. They have won 13 of their past 16 versus the Blue Jackets overall and six of their last nine trips to Columbus. Not only has Vancouver had a ton of success in this series overall, but Columbus comes in having lost four in a row and 13 of its last 15 games overall. Mychal Thompson Jersey. The Blue Jackets struggles continued with Tuesdays 4-2 loss to the visiting Winnipeg Jets, who scored just nine seconds into the game and the took over with a two-goal second period. Defenseman Jordan Leopold scored a power-play goal in the first frame, while Ryan Johansen also scored and Sergei Bobrovsky came up with 28 saves. Defenseman James Wisniewski played in his 500th NHL game and recorded his 250th point with an assist on Johansens goal. I really thought the group was ready after what we worked on, said Blue Jackets coach Todd Richards. That first goal really set us back. Richards may be counting down the days until forward Brandon Dubinsky can rejoin the club and that may not be too far off. Dubinsky has yet to play this season due to abdominal surgery, but has returned to practice. It was great to have him out on the ice, Richards told his clubs website on Thursday. Its a step in the right direction. (It) didnt look like the speed or anything like that, like he was out of place -- but you could tell that he hadnt been out there in a while. The more reps you get, the more opportunities he gets to skate with us, the better. Dubinsky will not play tonight nor on Saturday against Nashville, but a return to action next week remains a possibility. The 28-year-old had 16 goals and 50 points in 76 games last season. ' ' '
