Mariners avoid arbitration with RHP Bryce Miller
Bryce Miller's 2026 salary was set at the arbitration midpoint with a club option of $6.08 million, finalizing the Mariners' last arbitration-eligible player deal.
- On Jan 20, 2026, right-hander Bryce Miller and the Seattle Mariners avoided salary arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract that guarantees $2,452,500.
- Miller's negotiation centered on exchanged arbitration figures from Jan. 8, with a $2,437,500 midpoint between Miller's $2,625,000 and Seattle's $2.25 million offer.
- The contract includes a club option for $6,075,000 with a $15,000 buyout, which would be voided if Miller finishes in the Cy Young top five, despite the buyout still owed, and reflects Miller's recent IL stints for right elbow inflammation from May 14-31 and June 10 to Aug. 19.
- With Miller settled, the Mariners have closed their last arbitration case during a busy window following signings with Randy Arozarena, Logan Gilbert, and others, amid Skubal's $32 million ask and $19 million offer.
- Sixteen players remain scheduled for hearings from Jan. 26 to Feb. 13 in Scottdale, Arizona, as teams prepare for arbitration, with hearings starting Jan. 26.
