I posted this in the general discussion thread not knowing this was even here. Reposting in appropriate place

I have a player with 3 years 59 days of ML servise. He recieved an arbitration contract at the begining of last off-season before I aquired him via trade. He immediately received an 8 month (Torn Bicep) injury. He was placed on the 60 day DL and remained there all season. I left him on the DL through the first few sims of the off-season not thinking it would matter. We simmed past the arbitration dates and he was not assigned a salary. Currently he is on my active roster and signed to a minor league contract.
I am wondering if there is an arbitration "rain day", if he will recieve a hearing when the automatic contracts renew or if this will just blow up in my face at some point during the season.
This is an online league team with a cap. He is my best position player. You understand the implications.
