There is no doubt Lopez will be non-tendered.  Do you think he deserves a raise from $4.3 million?  Hell no.

Offer him a lower amount.  My point is the infield will be awful next year.

They would lose in arb then.  He pretty much to be non tendered,  because then they can negotiate a lot more.

Just looked at the box score before I fall asleep…Gus Varland will be one hell of a trivia answer in a few years. Have 100% never heard of him and if someone asked me who Gus Varland is in about six months, I wouldn’t be able to answer 😂

It doesn’t happen very often but it can.  But even if Lopez would accept 20% less than his salary this year for next year, I wouldn’t even offer him that.  🤣

Players and clubs negotiate over salaries, primarily based on comparable players who have signed contracts in recent seasons. A player's salary can indeed be reduced in arbitration -- with 20 percent being the maximum amount by which a salary can be cut.
