Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant lost his grievance in which he sought
an extra year of service time, ensuring he won't become a free agent until
after the 2021 season, sources familiar with the ruling told ESPN.
Major League Baseball arbitrator Mark Irvings' ruling in favor of the team
was long expected, sources said, and it definitively locks in Bryant's value
as Chicago considers trading him. With two seasons of team control, the Cubs
can seek a far greater return than they could have had Bryant won and
accelerated his free agency.

交易价值也变高了
虽然当初只差一天就达标 但仲裁员还是认为小熊一切都依法处理 没有问题
The ruling, which sources said is going through its final reviews before
being made public within a week, held that the Cubs did not run afoul of
service-time rules when they called Bryant to the major leagues on April 17,
2015. He had spent the first two weeks of the season in Triple-A after a
dominant spring training. Had the Cubs summoned Bryant a day earlier, he
would have ended the season with 172 days of service, or a full year.
Instead, with 171 days, Bryant fell short of a year by one day
