Dodgers, Brusdar Graterol Agree to 1-Year, $2.8 Million to Avoid Arbitration

The right-hander returns from 2024 shoulder surgery with a target of full participation in spring training.

Overview

  • Graterol’s $2.8 million salary matches his 2025 pay, when he missed the season after labrum surgery.
  • The 27-year-old enters his final year of arbitration eligibility and is on track to reach free agency next winter.
  • Los Angeles still has three arbitration cases to settle with Anthony Banda, Brock Stewart and Alex Call as the salary-exchange deadline arrives.
  • Hearings for unresolved cases are slated for Jan. 26 to Feb. 13 in Scottsdale, with negotiations allowed up to the hearing date.
  • Analysts peg Banda’s 2026 salary in the roughly $1.55 million to $1.7 million range, while Stewart’s recent shoulder surgery clouds his outcome.
