Arbitration Question

[brewerguy71]

In regards to Hardy, Hall, Hart and Fielder what do people expect they might get in arbitration?

 

I know that Ryan Howard is the model for Fielder. And Howard got a $900,000 reward in year one and $10,000, 000 in year two. (someone please correct me if those numbers or years are incorrect).

 

But what should the other guys get?

Hall is already under contract for the next 2 years, so he won't be in arbitration. Or did you just mean hypothetically?

Hall is signed through 2010.

These are just my uneducated (on arbitration history) guesses on the others. Hardy=$4.75M, Hart=$2.5M, Fielder=$7.75M.

oops, meant Weeks.

 

So was the number that Howard got $10mm his first shot at arbitration? I thought it was the $900k number.

From what I can find Howard got $900,000 in his last year before arbitration, and then the $10,000,000 in his first year of arbitration. (FWIW, the Phillies were offering $7,000,000.

The Phillies renewed his contract for $900,000 a year before his first year of arbitration (which was this year.) He got $10M.

The $900K is the money the Phillies gave him based on their point system, I believe. Similar to the situation that happened with Fielder this year and how much he is making.
