The Indians currently have seven players eligible for salary arbitration. Cleveland rarely if ever allows it’s cases to go all the way to the arbiter, preferring to settle them in-house.
MLB Trade Rumors.com has a fairly accurate track record when it comes to predicting the numbers for salary eligible players. Here are their predictions for the Cleveland Indians eligible-
- Asdrubal Cabrera – $4.8MM
- Shin-Soo Choo – $4.3MM
- Chris Perez – $4.2MM
- Justin Masterson – $3.6MM
- Rafael Perez – $1.9MM
- Joe Smith – $1.6MM
- Jack Hannahan – $1.3MM
