PHOENIX (AP)—All-Star catcher Dioner Navarro lost to the Tampa Bay Rays in
salary arbitration on Tuesday and will receive the team's $2.1 million offer
rather than his $2.5 million request.
Navarro was eligible for arbitration for the first time after hitting a
team-high .295 with seven homers and 54 RBIs last year, when he was selected to
his first All-Star game. He made $432,500.
Tampa Bay reached the World Series for the first time, losing to Philadelphia.
Navarro batted .353 (6-for-17) with no RBIs in the five-game loss to the
Phillies.
Arbitrators Elizabeth Neumeier, James Oldham and Steven Wolf heard the case
Monday.
Navarro became the second player to go to a hearing this year. Nationals
pitcher Shawn Hill was awarded $775,000 on Saturday rather than the team's
proposal of $500,000.
Fifteen players remain scheduled for hearings, which run through Feb. 20.
