ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Two-time All-Star Corbin Burnes went to salary arbitration with the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday and Brady Singer had a hearing with the Kansas City Royals.
Burnes asked for a raise from $6.55 million to $10.75 million and the Brewers argued for $10.01 million during a hearing before Melinda Gordon, Jules Bloch and Keith Greenberg.
Singer requested a raise from $726,250 to $3,325,000 and the Royals pushed for $2.95 million during a hearing in front of Howard Edelman, Walt De Treux and Brian Keller.
Decisions are expected Wednesday.
Burnes, a 28-year-old right-hander, was 12-8 with a 2.94 ERA in 2022 and made a career-best 33 starts, which tied for most in the major leagues. He led the National League with 243 strikeouts, second in the big leagues behind New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole at 257.
