Walt De Treux, Robert Herman and John Woods made the decision Wednesday, a day after listening to arguments.
Teams have a 9-4 advantage in decisions. New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge is the only player still scheduled for a hearing later this week. He is asking for $21 million and the team is offering $17 million.
