[討論] A's, Jim Johnson Avoid Arbitration
6:45pm: Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports that Johnson received a $10MM
salary (Twitter link).
6:36pm: The Athletics have avoided arbitration with closer Jim Johnson by
agreeing to a one-year contract, the team announced on Twitter. Johnson is
represented by Moye Sports Associates. Terms of the deal weren't disclosed,
but the right-hander was projected to earn $10.8MM by MLBTR contributor
Matt Swartz.
Johnson was acquired by the A's in exchange for Jemile Weeks in a salary dump
with the Orioles. The right-hander's hefty arbitration price tag is driven by
his Major League leading 101 saves over the past two seasons. Johnson also owns
a 2.70 ERA with 6.1 K/9 and 2.1 BB/9 over the past three seasons, and his
ground-ball rate hasn't dipped below last season's robust 58 percent since the
2010 campaign. He will inherit the ninth inning in Oakland following
Grant Balfour's departure.
Johnson represents one of the most interesting arbitration cases in this year's
class, as Swartz outlined in an Arbitration Breakdown piece in November.
Because so few closers go year-to-year for as long as Johnson has, and because
back-to-back 50-save campaigns are so rare, there were few comparables to use
when crafting a projection for his 2014 salary. In fact, the best comparable
for Johnson's 2014 arbitration case could be Johnson's own 2013 arbitration
case, Swartz noted.
Oakland GM Billy Beane still has five remaining arbitration cases, as can be
seen in MLBTR's Arbitration Tracker: Jed Lowrie, Craig Gentry, Brandon Moss,
Josh Reddick and Luke Gregerson.
