I’m assuming that when calling the Indians a “file and trial” team, you mean that they prefur to exchange figures before they avoid arbatration.
If I had to guess the vast majority of teams have gone to arbatration since the last time the Indians have in 1991.

It’s a policy that some teams, including the Braves, that once numbers are exchanged the team refuses to further negotiate with a player and they will leave it to the arbitrator to determine the final number.
Hunter 2
I was refurring to the fact that the Indians do not do that. They have agreed to terms with every ARB player since 1991. Thus are inherently not a file and trial team.

I did not say they are a strict file and trial team.
Note also: Braves have not had a hearing since 2001, and look where they are headed this year.

Something tells me the Braves are going to regret operating on an ultimatum. I dont know the figures but no way the Braves winning all of these

Kimbrel will be the one that hurts the most. Probably his last season with the Braves.

We can only hope.

Still nothing on Andrew Miller… Boston generally pays more than fair to avoid arbitration.. It’s been years since they even had a case. Am still hoping the delay is a multi year deal.
