DENVER, CO – SEPTEMBER 17: J.D. Davis #7 of the San Francisco Giants celebrates after hitting a sixth inning RBI single against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field on September 17, 2023 in Denver, Colorado. Third baseman J.D. Davis has agreed to a $2.5 million, one-year contract with the Oakland Athletics just days after he was released by San Francisco.
Davis, who turns 31 next month, was cut by the Giants on Monday after beating the team last month in salary arbitration. He was entitled to just over $1.1 million in termination pay rather than a $6.9 million salary.Under baseball’s collective bargaining agreement, negotiated contracts for arbitration-eligible players are guaranteed, while salaries decided by an arbitration panel are not. That allowed the Giants to release Davis for 30 days’ termination pay, which came to $1,112,903.
