Giancarlo was able to recover from surgery and had a 2013 season without any incident. In 2014, he was starting to show no negative signs or lingering effects from his previous injuries. The lucky stretch of not being hurt would sadly end in injury again. Injuries happen all the time in sports but Giancarlo is truly one of the unlucky few who have had to suffer through multiple injuries. During the 2014 season, Giancarlo suffered an injury to his face. He suffered multiple fractures to his face and ended up significant damage to his mouth and teeth.
Even though he had a major injury, the Florida Marlins were compassionate and still valued him as a great baseball player. That same year, he received a new contract extension from the Marlins. With his sketchy injury history, the contract offer shows how talented Giancarlo really is. It would be easy for a team to dump an average player if they saw him as damaged goods. Giancarlo was an excellent player that the Marlins could not risk losing even if he had so many past injuries. The Marlins extended Giancarlo’s contract by 13 years and the price of the contract was 325 million dollars. It was a huge contract only reserved for the best players in the league. Giancarlo had shown his worth and was rewarded for it by the only pro team he had ever played for.
After signing his huge contract extension, one would expect Giancarlo to have more luck. Unfortunately, the new influx of money wouldn’t save Giancarlo from his old nemesis, the injury bug. In 2015, he again suffered another injury. This time, he hurt his hand which is a crucial for a baseball player. It again took him some time to recover from the pain. At this point in his career, Giancarlo just had to accept the fact that he is an injury prone player. He didn’t feel too bad though because he had at least been healthy enough to earn a big contract.
There is not much public information about his personal life but it is believed that Giancarlo is a single man. With all the money he has, it might be a better choice for Giancarlo to enjoy the single life without having to worry about the stress of being in a relationship. He has a lot of baseball fans and a lot of them follow him on Twitter and his other social media profiles. In regards to his salary, his total annual salary in 2016 was 9 million dollars. His total net worth is estimated to be around 325 million dollars. Most of Giancarlo’s net worth can be credited to the huge contract extension he signed with Florida Marlins.
