Title: Madmen Arb
Post by: bshirt7 on February 02, 2018, 06:38:42 PM
Upper management of the Madmen are happy to offer AJ Pollock arbitration. With a war of 0.9 in 2017, his salary ICE  of 2M gets slashed in half to 1M.  Pollock wasn’t happy but then again he keeps getting hurt!

Initially when I looked at this, I thought I had screwed up again.  However, according to Baseball Reference, his WAR was 2.9.  You were looking at dWAR which doesn't take offensive stats into account.  Through BR, he'd have a $2M salary. 

His fangraphs WAR is 2.1, which gives him the same $2M.  I assume you still want to do this given that you are already paying that for him?
