The Phillies have avoided arbitration with their three remaining eligible players.

The Philadelphia Phillies will not head to an arbitration hearing with any of their three remaining eligible players — left-hander reliever Jose Alvarado, first baseman Rhys Hoskins, and right-handed starting pitcher Vince Velasquez.

Ahead of Friday’s deadline 1 p.m. deadline, the Phillies extended contract offers to the three players, which agreed to one-year contracts for the 2021 season. Alvarado will make $1 million, according to FanSided’s Robert Murray, while Hoskins and Velasquez will make $4.
