Cade Cavalli Avoids Arbitration With Nationals on One-Year Deal

The Washington Nationals avoided arbitration with Cavalli, agreeing to a one-year deal with a 2027 club option. He filed at $900K while the Nationals countered at $825K, the smallest gap among 18 players exchanging figures. The club option prevents the deal from setting an arbitration precedent. Cavalli posted a 4.25 ERA across ten starts in 2025 after returning from injury.
