| 2014 | Seattle Mariners, Tampa Bay Rays | 42 | 0.169 | From transactions |
| 2015 | Tampa Bay Rays | 108 | 1.105 | From transactions |
| 2016 | Tampa Bay Rays | 99 | 2.032 | From transactions |
| 2017 | Los Angeles Angels, Milwaukee Brewers | 112 | 2.144 | 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.
