Cardinals, Jack Flaherty Exchange Arbitration Figures
4 years agoThe St. Louis Cardinals and ace starting pitcher Jack Flaherty haven't agreed to terms on a 2021 contract and exchanged salary arbitration figures on Friday. The 25-year-old asked for $3.9 million and the team offered $3 million. An arbitrator will hear their cases and make a decision next month. Flaherty finished fourth in the National League Cy Young voting in 2019 and he went 4-3 with a 4.91 ERA over nine starts in the shortened 2020 season. It's his first season being eligible for arbitration and won't be eligible for free agency until after the 2023 season. Flaherty allowed one run in six innings in a loss to the Padres to lose the first-round playoff series. He'll enter 2021 drafts as a low-end SP1/high-end SP2 for fantasy managers.
