J.P. Crawford - Settles for $4.85 million Crawford and the Mariners avoided arbitration Tuesday by agreeing to a one-year, $4.85 million contract, Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports.
Impact Crawford will more than double his salary in his second year of arbitration eligibility. While his profile is still driven by his defense, he's coming off a year in which he produced an above-average batting line for the first time, as his .273/.338/.376 triple slash was good for a 103 wRC+.

Luke Weaver - Signs without arbiter Weaver and the Diamondbacks agreed to terms on a one-year, $2.875 million contract Tuesday, avoiding arbitration, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

Paul Sewald - No need for arbitration Sewald and the Mariners avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $1.735 million deal Tuesday, Kiley McDaniel of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Sewald broke out in his age-31 season last year, striking out 39.4 percent of opposing batters while posting a 3.06 ERA. Seattle's closer committee, a setup they intend to stick with this season, meant he only picked up 11 saves despite that dominance, which lessened the amount of money he would have received in arbitration.

Once healthy, Gerber will fill a bullpen role for Tacoma.
