Amygdala Shifts Between Learning Strategies to Enable Flexible Choices

New Dartmouth-led research reframes the amygdala as a dynamic arbiter that toggles between action-based and stimulus-based learning under uncertainty, promoting flexible decision-making. When the amygdala is damaged, arbitration becomes random and behavior locks into rigid action-based patterns. The findings offer a potential path for treating phobias and anxiety by encouraging action-based exploration over stimulus-driven fear, and pave the way for further studies on how the amygdala coordinates with prefrontal circuits to guide learning.

Skubal’s arbitration win creates a new benchmark

Skubal's $32M arb win rewrites pitcher pay scale

Tarik Skubal won his arbitration hearing, earning a $32 million salary for his final arb year—the largest arbitration award for an arb-eligible player and a potential new benchmark for five-plus-year pitchers. Detroit had submitted $19 million, and the ruling comes on the heels of the Tigers’ earlier three-year, $115 million deal with Framber Valdez, lifting their payroll toward franchise highs and making a midseason trade unlikely. The decision could reshape how clubs value elite arb-eligible pitchers in the future.

Nationals Avoid Arbitration With Cavalli Via Club-Option Deal

The Washington Nationals avoided arbitration with right-hander Cade Cavalli by agreeing to a one-year 2026 contract that includes a club option for 2027. The 2026 salary is about $862.5K, and the club option carries a $4M value with a $7,500 buyout, guaranteeing Cavalli roughly $870K overall. The multi-year setup sidesteps arbitration precedent, and Cavalli comes off a 2025 showing (4.25 ERA over ten starts) that suggests mid-rotation potential behind a group that could include MacKenzie Gore, Josiah Gray, Jake Irvin, and others.
