22 major league players left in arbitration after 171 reach agreements

NEW YORK (AP) — A total of 171 major league players agreed to contracts in the hours before and after Thursday’s arbitration exchange of proposed salaries with teams, and just one reached a multiyear deal: injured Tampa Bay left hander Shane McClanahan. McClanahan agreed to a $7.2 million, two year contract that includes salaries of $3.6 million annually.

He is not likely to pitch this year as he recovers from Tommy John surgery last August. While 23 players swapped figures with their clubs, the vast majority eligible for arbitration agreed to one year contracts. After the swap, reliever Devin Williams and Milwaukee agreed to a $7.25 million, one year deal that could be worth $18.5 million plus award bonuses over two seasons.

He gets a $7 million salary this year, and the Brewers have a $10.5 million option for 2024 with a $250,000 buyout. The option price can escalate by up to $1 million for games pitched this year: $200,000 for 52, $250,000 each for 57 and 62, and $300,000 for 66.
