Darvish and Heyward both had the right to opt out of their contracts and become free agents, but decided against it.

Darvish is owed $81 million over the final four seasons of a $126 million, six-year deal, and Heyward is due $86 million in the next four seasons of a $184 million, eight-year contract.
