Pirates agree to terms with Neil Walker, James McDonald

The Pirates have signed Neil Walker and James McDonald, avoiding arbitration. No details are available as yet.

UPDATE by Charlie: Tom Singer makes it sound like Walker's deal was for about $3.3 million. If that's the case, that's more than Walker was projected to get, but it's right between the figure Walker filed ($3.6 million) and what the Pirates offered ($3 million).

UPDATE by Charlie: Rob Biertempfel reports that Walker will make $3.3 million and McDonald will make $3.025 million.
