| Season | Club | Days | Running total | How this season is known |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2014 | New York Yankees | 125 | 0.125 | From transactions |
| 2015 | New York Yankees | 160 | 1.113 | From transactions |
| 2016 | Tampa Bay Rays | 163 | 2.104 | From transactions |
| 2017 | Tampa Bay Rays | 146 | 3.078 | From transactions |
| 2018 | Atlanta Braves | 22 | 3.100 | 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.
