| Season | Club | Days | Running total | How this season is known |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 | Cleveland Indians | 157 | 0.157 | From transactions |
| 2022 | Cleveland Indians | 167 | 1.152 | From transactions |
| 2023 | Cleveland Indians | 172 | 2.152 | Carried forward |
| 2024 | Cleveland Indians | 172 | 3.152 | From transactions |
| 2025 | Toronto Blue Jays | 172 | 4.152 | From transactions |
| 2026 | Los Angeles Angels | 22 | 5.002 | 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.
