MIAMI — Left-hander Jesús Luzardo received his arbitration listening to towards the Marlins on Friday, a supply informed MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand. Luzardo will earn $2.45 million in 2023. The membership has not confirmed the news.

Miami had filed at $2.1 million. Luzardo was in his first 12 months of arbitration eligibility; he can not turn out to be a free agent till after the 2026 season.

Luzardo was strong in 2022, regardless of scuffling with a left forearm pressure that sidelined him from mid-May till Aug. 1. Even so, Luzardo lowered his ERA by virtually half, from 6.61 in 2021 (break up between the A’s and Marlins) to three.32 in ’22. 

Across his 18 begins, 12 of which got here after the harm, Luzardo held opponents to a .191 common and recorded 120 strikeouts over 100 1/3 innings.

Luzardo will probably be a part of a Marlins rotation that features reigning National League Cy Young winner Sandy Alcantara, Trevor Rogers, Edward Cabrera and the not too long ago signed Johnny Cueto.

The southpaw is the second Marlin in as many days to win his arbitration listening to, after Luis Arraez received his case on Thursday. Last month the Marlins averted arbitration with Garrett Cooper, catcher Jacob Stallings, infielder Joey Wendle and relievers JT Chargois and Tanner Scott. They didn’t attain agreements with Luzardo and utility participant Jon Berti.
