With Spring Training well underway and Opening Day inching closer and closer, the Yankees have started signing their pre-arbitration-eligible players to one-year contracts for the 2018 season.
As a reminder, players with less than three years of service time do not have arbitration rights, so clubs are essentially free to pay them whatever they want. Teams usually negotiate a salary with the player to maintain a good relationship, however. Here are the Yankees’ known 2018 pre-arb deals, according to the Associated Press and Ken Davidoff:
| Service Time (years.days) | MLB salary | MiLB salary |
|---|---|---|
| Brandon Drury | 2. |
