"The Dodgers now have to work out deals with Brusdar Graterol, Anthony Banda, Brock Stewart and Alex Call after tendering contracts for next season. According to MLB Trade Rumors, Dodgers arbitration projections are as follows: Brusdar Graterol (5.167): $2.8MM Anthony Banda (4.135): $1.7MM Brock Stewart (4.093): $1.4MM Alex Call (2.161): $1.5MM The aforementioned players have three or more years of Major League service time but less than six years, which makes them eligible for salary arbitration."
"Among them was Ben Rortvedt, who reportedly avoided arbitration with the Dodgers before going on waivers and being claimed by the Cincinnati Reds. The Dodgers also non-tendered Evan Phillips, who was projected to receive $6.1 million in salary arbitration. President of baseball operations Andrew Friedman noted the Dodgers are interested in re-signing Phillips, to a presumably lesser contract. Meanwhile, Tony Gonsolin was designated for assignment and Michael Grove got outrighted off the Dodgers' 40-man roster before both players elected free agency."
"Graterol is projected to earn the same salary as this year, while Banda ($1 million), Stewart ($880,000) and Call ($769,100) are presumed to receive raises. Graterol is entering his final season of arbitration, while Banda and Stewart are going through the process for the second time. Call is arbitration-eligible for the first time in his career as a Super 2 player."
The Los Angeles Dodgers entered the offseason with nine players eligible for 2026 arbitration and have since reduced that group through trades, waivers, non-tenders and roster moves. Ben Rortvedt was claimed off waivers by the Cincinnati Reds after avoiding arbitration. The Dodgers non-tendered Evan Phillips but expressed interest in re-signing him to a smaller deal. Tony Gonsolin was designated for assignment and Michael Grove was outrighted, both electing free agency. The Dodgers exercised Alex Vesia's 2026 club option. The team tendered contracts to Brusdar Graterol, Anthony Banda, Brock Stewart and Alex Call, with projected arbitration salaries listed.
