The limit for 2025 was 2 years and 132 days of service in the Major Leagues.\n\nPlayers who signed as foreign professionals are excluded.\n\nMost young players have salaries slightly above this year&#8217;s Major League minimum, which is $760,000. Crow-Armstrong has a salary of $771,000 this year, Skenes $875,000, Wood $764,400, and Brown $807,400.\n\nCarroll is in the third season of an eight-year, $111 million contract.\n\nAs part of the labor agreement, a management and union committee was established, which determined the WAR formula, used to allocate bonuses after the awards. The agreement requires the distribution of a provisional report the week before the All-Star Game.\n\nThe distribution of prizes was $9.85 million last year, down from $11.25 million in 2022 and $9.25 million in 2023.\n\nA player earns $2.5 million for winning the MVP or Cy Young award, $1.75 million for finishing second, $1.5 million for third, $1 million for fourth or fifth, or for being part of the first All-MLB team. A player also receives $750,000 for winning the Rookie of the Year award, $500,000 for finishing second, $350,000 for third, $250,000 for fourth or $150,000 for fifth, or $500,000 for being part of the second All-MLB team.\n\nKansas City shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. topped last year&#8217;s pre-arbitration bonus pool with $3,077,595 and Skenes was second with $2,152,057, despite not debuting in the Major Leagues until May 11. Baltimore shortstop Gunnar Henderson was third with $2,007,178.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pete Crow-Armstrong leads the pre-arbitration bonus group The Chicago Cubs&#8217; center fielder, Pete Crow-Armstrong, is set to receive the largest sum from this season&#8217;s pre-arbitration bonus pool, valued at $50 million, based on his regular season statistics.
