I dont know how far ATL moved, correct, nor do you, Heyward may have offered to meet halfway but was rebuffed, anyway this is all moot now after his extension.
There are only 3 arb years so $1.8m is wrong, its half that, but nevermind…
My point being it reflects badly in how an organisation treats its players.
Most big league clubs hate going to arb and do all they can to avoid it, for obvious reasons, including small market teams.
We’ll agree to disagree.

The 1.8is correct and the reason to not just give in. If you were to just give in on an extra $300,000 each year it would be cumulative. $300,000 year one, that extra plus $300,000 again the next year. Ends up being $1.8mil and a good reason to not give in.

Sorry, I meant that if they could have worked it out beforehand, the difference would likely have been split down the middle. Yes, arb hearings themselves are winner take all.
