ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Toronto All-Star third baseman Josh Donaldson and Miami pitcher David Phelps have argued their salary arbitration cases before three-person panels.
Donaldson asked Steven Wolf, Robert Herzog and Gary Kendellen for $5,725,000 on Thursday, and the Blue Jays argued for $4.3 million.
Phelps requested $1,875,000 from Mark Burstein, Dennis Archer and Sylvia Skratek, and the Marlins made their case for $1.4 million.
Decisions are likely Friday. Players and teams have split six decisions, and the eight cases that have gone to hearings are the most since clubs went 5-3 in 2010.
