Scott Boras is Arietta's agent. Anyone want to guess what Boras will ask for demand this off-season's arbitration?
I expect Boras will submit an offer for a minimum of $15 million as Rick Porcello was given $12.5 million by the Red Sox to avoid arbitration last winter. Then again with the Red Sox giving Porcello a 4 year/$82.5 million contract in April I wouldn't be surprised if Boras asks somewhere between $18-$20 million just for the 2016 season.
