I mean, can a team just refuse and release the player? A player awarded a salary in arbitration gets a non-guaranteed contract. He is entitled to 30 days termination pay if released 15 days prior to opening day, 45 days termination pay if less than 15 days to Opening Day, contract becomes guaranteed on the opening day roster. I am unclear on if this is the case for deals that avoid arbitration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edman85 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Just confirmed that pre-arb deals are also non-guaranteed subject to the same termination pay terms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
