NEW YORK — Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran and right-hander Kutter Crawford are among 29 players with two-to-three years of service time who are eligible for salary arbitration, and Atlanta Braves left-hander Angel Perdomo just missed the cutoff.

Seattle’s George Kirby also is among the so-called Super Twos along with fellow right-handers Shane Baz (Tampa Bay), Kyle Bradish (Baltimore), Edward Cabrera (Miami), Ryan Feltner (Colorado), Ben Lively (Cleveland) and Andre Pallante (St. Louis).

Left-handers include Reid Detmers of the Los Angeles Angels, who pitched a no-hitter against Tampa Bay as a rookie in May 2022, and Bailey Falter of Pittsburgh. Among the outfielders are MJ Melendez of Kansas City and Jarred Kelenic of Atlanta. Minnesota infielder Royce Lewis also is eligible.

The cutoff was set at 2 years, 132 days of major league service, up from 2 years, 118 days last offseason. The cutoff was as low as 2 years, 115 days in 2019 and as high as 2 years, 146 days in 2011.

Washington right-hander Michael Rucker was the last player above the cutoff but became a free agent Monday after refusing an outright assignment to Triple-A Rochester. Seattle catcher Seby Zavala would have been eligible but elected free agency last month.

Perdomo, who has 2 years, 131 days of service, is recovering from last year’s Tommy John surgery.

Others eligible include Washington catcher Riley Adams, Detroit right-hander Beau Brieske, Seattle catcher Luis Campusano, Toronto shortstop Ernie Clement, New York Yankees right-hander Scott Effross, Miami catcher Nick Fortes, Miami left-hander Braxton Garrett, Pittsburgh right-hander Colin Holderman, Oakland right-hander Dany Jimenez, Detroit third baseman Andy Ibanez, Colorado right-hander Justin Lawrence, Atlanta left-hander Dylan Lee, Chicago White Sox right-hander Penn Murfee, Toronto right-hander Zach Pop and San Francisco right-hander Austin Warren.

The top 22% of players by service time with at least two years but less than three are eligible for arbitration as long as they had at least 86 days of service this year. They join the group of three-to-six-year players.

Players and teams are set to exchange proposed salaries Jan. 9, and hearings for those lacking agreements will be scheduled for Jan. 27 to Feb. 14 in St. Petersburg, Florida.

Players were eligible after two years of service from 1974-85, and the threshold increased to three years in 1986. The Super Two class began in 1991 at 17% and it increased to 22% in 2013.

🚨 WHAT IF ONE HOT STREAK JUST CHANGED AN ENTIRE ROSTER BATTLE? Minnesota Twins suddenly find themselves in the middle of a depth-chart shakeup as an unexpected standout continues to push his case for a permanent role, forcing difficult decisions as roster spots become tighter and performance becomes the only currency that matters. ⚾ What started as a “fill-in” opportunity has turned into real pressure on established names, with consistency and timing now outweighing reputation in the evaluation process. When someone outside the expected rotation starts producing under pressure, the ripple effect hits everyone. And that’s where names like James Outman enter the conversation — not because of decline alone, but because roster construction in baseball is ruthless when momentum shifts at the wrong time. 🔥 In MLB, opportunities don’t wait… and neither do roster decisions. #MNTwins #Twins #MLB #MinnesotaTwins #RosterBattle #MLBNews #BaseballUpdates #GameDay #BreakingNews #BaseballCulture
