Fantasy Analysis
There are obviously varying degrees of Fantasy relevance here, but the important note is these players are signed and their teams think enough of them to not have non-tendered them this winter. The arbitration process is designed to give raises to the deserving players with 2-6 years major league service time. These guys are going to make a lot more money this year and the question of just how much will be answered in the next month or so. (Updated 01/20/2010).
