Arbitration is always a more stressful time than you would prefer if you are either a fan of a given player/team or if you are one of the actual parties involved. If you are a fan, you worry that an acrimonious arbitration hearing will spoil the two sides’ relationship which might mean losing a player you like down the line. For both players and teams, they are doing their best to essentially put a player’s value on trial to get the best deal and that can lead to less than desirable outcomes on both sides.
That is why it was at least good news that the Braves and Max Fried as well as AJ Minter came to terms thereby avoiding all of that arbitration hearing nonsense.
