The Yankees have avoided arbitration with reliever Camilo Doval, who will earn $6.1 million this upcoming season, according to multiple reports.
There are six other arbitration-eligible players with 2026 salaries not yet reported: infielders Jazz Chisholm Jr., Anthony Volpe, and Jose Caballero, starter Luis Gil, and relievers David Bednar, Fernando Cruz, and Jake Bird.
MLB Trade Rumors projects a $10.2 million salary for Chisholm, mentioned as a potential trade candidate this offseason and slated to become a free agent after the 2026 campaign.
Bednar ($9 million projected) will also be eligible for free agency next winter, while Volpe ($3.9 million projected), Gil ($2.1 million projected), Cruz ($1.3 million projected), and Bird ($1 million projected) still have three years of team control.
Caballero ($1.9 million projected) 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.
