| Season | Club | Days | Running total | How this season is known |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2012 | Oakland Athletics | 101 | 0.101 | From transactions |
| 2013 | Oakland Athletics | 172 | 1.101 | From transactions |
| 2014 | Oakland Athletics | 172 | 2.101 | From transactions |
| 2015 | San Diego Padres | 172 | 3.101 | Carried forward |
| 2016 | San Diego Padres | 172 | 4.101 | From transactions |
| 2017 | Tampa Bay Rays | 0 | 4.101 | 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.
