Calvin Faucher asks for $2.05M, Marlins argue for $1.8M in final arbitration hearing
Calvin Faucher, a Super 2 eligible relief pitcher, was awarded a $1.8 million salary for 2026 after arbitration, less than his $2.05 million request, officials said.
- On Friday, Calvin Faucher and the Miami Marlins held the 12th and final arbitration hearing in Scottsdale, with Faucher seeking $2.05 million and the team arguing $1.8 million.
- Faucher, a 30-year-old right-hander, built his arbitration case on last season's statistics, including 59 strikeouts and 24 walks in a career-high 60 1/3 innings.
- The three-member arbitration panel returned a ruling Saturday, a day after hearing arguments, with Robert Herman, Paul Radvany and Walt De Treux issuing their decision.
- The decision immediately determines Faucher's salary and adds to arbitration precedent by awarding the club's $1.8 million offer, maintaining owners' 362-278 edge since 1974.
- The arbitration cycle also featured Tarik Skubal's record $32 million award and wins for Tyler Stephenson and Kris Bubic .
