Any word, specifically on the Yankees, but other teams as well, players that have/have not been offered arbitration?

anywhere from 10,000 to 20,000 total hrs, or maybe even more. You do the math.Originally Posted by IncredibleByNature
By my count, 3 hours and 52 minutes
But we also have Bernie. I think it's safe to say we are offering to Gordon. No to Brown and Bernie.

not offered arb, for clarification.
How do we offer to Gordon? He's already signed, we already got the picks..
Keep dreaming, SM.
Just a few more hours...
Thanks, GR.
I love Bernie, but I hope he retires.
As for Brown.
It is just a rules thing.
I would not be surprised if Bernie was offered arbitration with an agreement in place that he will decline so they can continue to talk.
Yes, exactly.

Just saw on espn.com that the Angels declined arbitration on Molina and Washburn. I thought they would offer arbitration to at least one of those guys, so I'm a little surprised.
Wow! That really surprises me.

If this event happens, then you can virtually guarantee Bernie's return to the pinstripes or retirement.
I can't see any team willing to give Bernie a) a decent contract and b) giving up the draft pick.
cairo not offered arbitration by the mets, resign him!
That's weird Molina wasn't offered.
No arbitration offered to Dotel. It would be awesome if we could sign him to an incentive-laden deal.
Cairo, Clemens, Looper and Dotel all catch my eye.
Which Castillo is that?
You've got nothing to believe in but believing in yourself.
sign cairo/graffanino
looper is a good alternative to tavarez etc
dotel should be done only since it gives us insurance and also a tradeable chip if his rehab goes well.
and sign nomar. i just have a good feeling.
I'm NO american born confused desi, but i love my yanks!
Kenny Rogers not offered. Why don't we bring him back?
He could beat up the camera men so they stay away from Randy.Kenny Rogers not offered. Why don't we bring him back?
If I had 3 wishes... One of my wishes would be to make a select few of you Pirates Fans.
Dotel, Clemens, Looper, and Cairo!
"When white belts want to learn jiu jitsu they go to a black belt. When black belts want to learn jiu jitsu they go to John Danaher."
Very good point!
Is it just me or do the Yankees never release their arbitration info before the midnight deadline? I remember this same thing last year..
I beat ya!
You've got nothing to believe in but believing in yourself.
43 minutes until Ruben Sierra hits the road for good.
.321/.396/.523- That's Erubiel Durazo line from 2004. He was injured in 2005 and only had 152 at-bats, his line was .237/.305/.368.
The A's didn't offer him arbitration, someone might get a steal with him.
Cashman has already said he's not going after any DH's.
It's unfortunate that we can't make a run at him, he'd be a nice addition if we didn't have so many DHs.
I would love him as a DH.
"When white belts want to learn jiu jitsu they go to a black belt. When black belts want to learn jiu jitsu they go to John Danaher."
So, other than an outside chance of offering it to Bernie, is it safe to say that none of the Yankee eligibles get offered it?

Wait... don't we have to offer arbitration to Gordon to get the Phillies draft picks?
ESPN.com says we offered arb. to Leiter, too.
Leiter will probably retire, but he's not an awful LOOGYESPN.com says we offered arb. to Leiter, too.
He signed with another team before the deadline so we automatically get the picks.
Too, as in we DID offer to Bernie? Leiter isn't a bad move as even if he accepted, we don't have to sign him and two it would be cheap (as a fall back to Myers)ESPN.com says we offered arb. to Leiter, too.
We get the picks automatically.

why the hell did we offer Bernie arb?? I cant believe he will be back again next year....unreal
Jesus Montero since June 1 (286 at-bats):
.325/.386/.605/.991
July 1 (182 at-bats):
.348/.417/.658/1.075
Good, I wasn't sure if that was the case or not.
Per rotoworldYankees offered arbitration to OF Bernie Williams, LHP Al Leiter and RHP Ramiro Mendoza.
Williams surely agreed to decline it, but he's almost certain to stay with the Yankees now. He'd cost another team a draft pick to sign, and he's simply not worth it at this point of his career. Leiter and Mendoza are also expected to decline arbitration. Dec. 8 - 12:01 am et

If Looper can't effectively close for the Mets, what makes people think he'll be an effective reliever/set-up guy, especially at the American League level?
I'd like to see the Yanks re-sign Cairo but I don't see a spot for him. Unless we platoon him with Cano. The two C's of the infield.
Wait.. how does arb work for the regular player whos been in the MLB for 6+ years if he ACCEPTS arbitration. If Bernie accepted arb how would that work out.
It sounds like they pretty much offered the three players arbitration more as a "token" move than anything else.
This offseason seems absolutely insane. Probably because the FA class is so weak. I personally think that Yankees are just caught between a rock and a hard place -- in a year or so, the farm system will improve and there will be more trading flexibility. Plus, the unmoveable contracts will hopefully be gone. The "big" moves have bitten them too many times, and I wouldn't be suprised if they fall off a bit this season, but are better for it in 2 years or so.
UM... waiting for football
#21 - We will never forget you.
Let's Go Yankees!
I heart young pitchers
We honestly can't have Bernie on this team, Torre will play him way too much. What a god damn shi*storm...
Calmer than you are.
Because you have to put your 'closer' in in a save situation no matter who the batter is. Looper kills righthanders. Lefthanders kill Looper. All you have to do is use him right.
Oh, and for closers, there's really no big difference between the AL and the NL. It's not like NL closers actually face the oppossing picture.
Good bye Ruben Sierra and Kevin Brown.

Mendoza? What the f u c k? Is Cashman sitting behind his desk smoking a big fat bong with Joe Torre and recalling the old days? Al "Belly Full of Guts" Leiter, Bernie Williams, and Ramiro Mendoza. Wow. I am shocked.
Bernie is a "Joe guy"
"When white belts want to learn jiu jitsu they go to a black belt. When black belts want to learn jiu jitsu they go to John Danaher."
OK WTF?!? Mendoza offered arbitration?!
