ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Mickey Moniak defeated the Los Angeles Angels in salary arbitration when the outfielder was awarded a raise to $2 million instead of the team's offer of $1.5 million. Melinda Gordon, Samantha Tower and John Woods made the decision one day after listening to arguments. Reliever Mark Leiter Jr. became the first player to go to a hearing with the New York Yankees since Dellin Betances lost in 2017. Leiter asked for $2.5 million and the team argued for $2.05 million. San Diego pitcher Michael King agreed to $7.75 million and Milwaukee catcher WIlliam Contreras to $6.1 million, both avoiding hearings.
