This study uses multiple regression to determine if performance and eligibility for salary arbitration or free agency led to higher salaries of major league baseball players during a period of extreme labor-management strife. The results for both nonpitchers and pitchers indicate that performance and eligibility for arbitration or free agency led to higher salaries even during 1994-1995, a period that ultimately experienced a players’ strike and the cancellation of the World Series.
