Other notable players on the list include Cleveland’s Steven Kwan, Boston’s Jarren Duran, and New York Yankees’ Anthony Volpe.

These payments are part of the 2022 collective bargaining agreement, aiming to provide additional compensation to players who do not yet qualify for salary arbitration due to limited major league service time.
