| 2010 | Cleveland Indians | 86 | 1.057 | From transactions |
| 2011 | Cleveland Indians | 62 | 1.119 | From transactions |

| 2013 | Cleveland Indians, New York Yankees | 60 | 2.062 | From transactions |
| 2014 | San Francisco Giants, New York Yankees | 172 | 3.062 | From transactions |
| 2015 | Los Angeles Dodgers | 12 | 3.074 | From transactions |

172 days credit a full year, so a season adds at most 1.000 no matter how long a player is on a roster. 3.000 years reaches salary arbitration and 6.000 reaches free agency —
what every threshold unlocks.
