ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Infielder Luis Rengifo beat the Los Angeles Angels in salary arbitration for the second time in three years and will earn $5.95 million instead of the team's offer of $5.8 million.
Arbitrators Brian Keller, Mary Theresa Metzler and Stephen Raymond made the decision Friday, a day after hearing arguments.
Rengifo set career highs last season with a .300 batting average and 24 stolen bases. He hit six homers and had 30 RBIs in 78 games. He was sidelined between May 3 and 17 by a viral infection and between July 3 and 23 by right wrist inflammation. He played his last game of the season Aug. 2 and had right wrist surgery four days later.
