This offseasons cutoff for Super Two arbitration eligibility has been set at two years and 132 days of service time, per reporting from . This is an increase from last year, when the cutoff was 2.118.  Players automatically qualify for arbitration when they reach three years of service time and dont already have a guaranteed contract. The top 22% of players in service time between two and three years also qualify one offseason early (so long as they spent at least 86 days of the preceding season on the active roster or MLB injured list).  Here are the thresholds from prior offseasons:  2023: 2.118  2022: 2.128  2021: 2.116  2020: 2.125  2019: 2.115 Jerian Grant Jersey   2018: 2.134  2017: 2.123  2016: 2.131  2015: 2.130  2014: 2.133  2013: 2.122  2012: 2.140  2011: 2.146  2010: 2.122  2009: 2.139  Qualifying for arbitration early can have a significant impact on a players earning power. Theres the immediate benefit of potentially having a higher salary in the forthcoming season, as well as the ability to go through arbitration four times instead of the usual three.  In an extreme example,  of the Blue Jays was a Super Two Player after 2021. He and the Jays went year to year in arbitration, with Guerrero earning $7.9MM in 2022, followed by $14.5MM and $19.9MM in second and third arbitration seasons. projects him for a $29.6MM salary in 2025, Guerreros fourth and final arb year.  Some players who just made this years cutoff include  of the Red Sox (2.136)and  of the Tigers (2.134). Blum lists  of Atlanta as a player who just mi sed the cutoff.  Teams have until November 22 to decide whether or not to tender contracts to arbitration-eligible players. Players who are non-tendered become free agents without going through waivers. Those who are tendered contracts, they and the clubs have until January 9 to exchange proposed salary figures. The hearings are scheduled to take place from January 27 to February 14 in St. Petersburg, Florida. Players and clubs can avoid arbitration by agreeing to a salary at any time, though most teams have a policy of ending negotiations after the filing deadline, with exceptions for multi-year pacts.  John Wall Jersey
