Tigers avoid arbitration with Matthew Boyd, Daniel Norris, 2 others

The Detroit Tigers agreed to contract terms with their four remaining arbitration-eligible players for the 2020 season on Friday afternoon. Matthew Boyd, Daniel Norris, Buck Farmer, and JaCoby Jones agreed to deals with the club before the deadline.

Daniel Norris, in his second season of arbitration eligibility, agreed to a salary of $2,962,500 for the 2020 season. That’s just a bit higher than the $2.9 million projection made by Matt Swartz at MLB Trade Rumors. Norris, who earned $ 1.275 million in 2019, has one more season of arbitration eligibility remaining before he becomes a free agent after the 2021 season.
