Barajas Signed By Bucs

Pirates signed C Rod Barajas to a one-year contract with a club option for 2013.

No word on the specifics, but Barajas earned $3.25 million in 2011. The 36-year-old backstop batted .230/.287/.430 with 16 homers, 47 RBI and a .717 OPS over 336 plate appearances with the Dodgers this season while throwing out 25 percent (20-for-80) of would-be basestealers. With Ryan Doumit and Chris Snyder free agents, he'll be the primary catcher in Pittsburgh next season.
