- The Giants and reliever Brandon Medders avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $820K deal, according to Ken Gurnick of MLB.com.
- MLB.com's Mark Sheldon reports that the Reds and Nick Masset have avoided arbitration, agreeing to a two-year deal. Masset is set to earn $1.035MM this season and $1.545 next season, according to John Fay of the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Good deal .. I am glad its for two years … if the Reds can off load Coco at some point, we’ll have his replacement already on the roster at a good price.
I am so mad at the griffey trade right now for the sox.
Glad to see the Giants got Medders resigned for a reasonable price.
