The Yankees have avoided arbitration with relievers David Bednar and Camilo Doval.
According to multiple reports, the Yankees’ new closer will earn $9 million this upcoming season, with Doval taking home $6.1 million.

There are five other arbitration-eligible players who reportedly settled their cases Thursday: infielders Jazz Chisholm Jr. ($10.2 million), Anthony Volpe ($3.4 million), and Jose Caballero ($2 million), starter Luis Gil ($2.1 million), and relievers Fernando Cruz ($1.4 million), and Jake Bird (TBD).
Chisholm, who’s been mentioned in base-level trade rumors this offseason, is slated to become a free agent after the 2026 campaign.
Volpe, Gil, Cruz, and Bird still have three years of team control, while Caballero is the lone player with two-plus years of MLB service logged.
The Yankees avoided arbitration with two players back in November, signing right-hander Clarke Schmidt and utilityman Oswaldo Cabrera to one-year contracts worth $4.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
