SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Pitcher Dylan Lee went to salary arbitration with the Atlanta Braves on Friday, with the 31-year-old left-hander asking for $2.2 million and the team offering $2 million.

His case was heard by Margie Brogan, Paul Radvany and Jeanne Vonhof, who are expected to issue a decision during the week of Feb. 9.

Lee was 2-4 with a 3.29 ERA and two saves in 74 relief appearances during 2025 MLB season, when he earned $1,025,000.

Pitcher Edwin Uceta and the Tampa Bay Rays argued the first salary arbitration case of the year Thursday, with the 28-year-old right-hander asking for $1,525,000 and the team arguing for $1.2 million.

A dozen players remain scheduled for hearings, which run through through Feb. 13 in Scottsdale, Arizona.

In the most prominent case, two-time American League Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal asked for a record $32 million, while the Detroit Tigers offered the left-hander $19 million.

Kansas City Royals infielder Vinnie Pasquantino avoided a hearing Friday when he agreed to a two-year contract. The Royals announced the deal is pending a successful physical.
