Post-lockout arbitration settlements are in full swing, and the San Francisco Giants are getting in on the action. Shortly after it was reported that they skipped arbitration with Darin Ruf by extending him for his final two years of team control, it was reported that the Giants avoided arbitration with outfielder Mike Yastrzemski, by agreeing to a $3.7 million deal for 2022.
This was Yastrzemski’s first year of being arbitration eligible, and he’s got three more passes through the system before he reaches free agency prior to the 2026 season.
