The Cardinals' outstanding arbitration cases reduced to one on Friday, as the organization agreed to one-year deals with center fielders Jon Jay and Peter Bourjos.

Like Jon Jay, center fielder Peter Bourjos has avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract with the Cardinals for 2014. With Bourjos now signed, too, Daniel Descalso is the Cardinals’ only unsettled arbitration case. Later today, the two sides will exchange desired salary figures. They can continue to negotiate up until the point of an arbitration hearing, which would be scheduled for sometime during the first three weeks of February. The Cardinals have not gone to a hearing with a player since 1999.
