Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Oakland Athletics have agreed to terms with pitchers Brandon McCarthy and Joey Devine on one-year contracts for the 2012 season. McCarthy had the best season of his career with the A's last year, going 9-9 in 25 starts with a 3.32 earned run average. He set career highs in wins (9) innings pitched (170 2/3), strikeouts (123) and complete games (5).
McCarthy, drafted in 2002 by the Chicago White Sox, has played six seasons in the majors, spending time with both the White Sox and Rangers before joining the Athletics in 2011. He holds a 29-33 record in 135 games (81 starts) with a 4.17 ERA and 374 strikeouts in 543 1/3 innings.
Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Red Sox and outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury have avoided arbitration, agreeing to a contract for the 2012 season. Ellsbury is coming off a bounce-back season after injuries limited him to 18 games in 2010.
The 28-year-old finished second in the voting for the 2011 AL MVP and was named AL Comeback Player of the Year after hitting .321 while setting career- highs with 46 doubles, 32 home runs 119 runs and 105 RBI. He also led the majors with 364 total bases and 83 extra-base hits.
Bronx, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Yankees have agreed to terms with pitchers Joba Chamberlain and David Robertson on one-year contracts, avoiding arbitration. Chamberlain's 2011 season was cut short due to Tommy John surgery. The burly right-hander went 2-0 with a 2.83 earned run average in 27 relief appearances before being placed on the 15-day disabled list on June 8 with a strained right flexor muscle. He had surgery a week later.
Over four seasons with the Yankees, Robertson owns a 14-6 career record with a 3.03 ERA in 204 relief appearances.
Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Baltimore Orioles have agreed to terms with pitchers Jim Johnson, Darren O'Day and Dana Eveland on one-year contracts, avoiding arbitration. Johnson, 28, appeared in a career-high 69 games last season, recording a 6-5 record with nine saves and a 2.67 ERA. He finished second among AL relievers in innings pitched (91).
Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Nationals have signed pitchers Jordan Zimmermann, Tom Gorzelanny and Tyler Clippard to one-year contracts, avoiding arbitration. Zimmermann, a core piece of the Nationals' future, went 8-11 with a 3.18 ERA in 26 starts last season, his first full year back from Tommy John surgery.
Gorzelanny went 4-6 with a 4.03 ERA in 30 games (15 starts) last season, his first with Washington.
Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Detroit Tigers announced Tuesday that catcher/designated hitter Victor Martinez recently sustained a torn ACL in his left knee. The team said Martinez, who will be re-evaluated by Dr. Richard Stedman, suffered the injury last week during his off-season conditioning. Surgery would likely sideline him for the season.
Cleveland, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cleveland Indians have signed outfielder Shin-Soo Choo, third baseman Jack Hannahan and pitchers Justin Masterson, Chris Perez and Joe Smith to one-year contracts. Choo, who will make $4.9 million in 2012, was limited to 85 games last season due to injuries. He hit .259 with eight homers and 36 RBI.
Masterson will earn $3.825 million in 2012 after making just $468,400 last season. The sinkerball pitcher had a breakout year in 2011, going 12-10 with a 3.21 ERA over 34 outings (33 starts). He logged a team-high 216 innings for the Indians.
