HBT: Price, Rays avoid arbitration with 1-year deal

From ESPN?s Jerry Crasnick comes word that the Rays and left-hander David Price avoided salary arbitration Tuesday by agreeing to a one-year deal.

The exact financial details haven?t been disclosed.

Price, a Super Two qualifier who?s arbitration-eligible for the second time, turned in a?dominant?2.56 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 8.7 K/9 in 31 starts last season for Tampa Bay en route to capturing Cy Young Award honors in the American League. He was named an All-Star in July and wound up with a few MVP votes.

The 27-year-old southpaw is not eligible for free agency until after the 2015 campaign. He owns a 3.16 career ERA through four-plus MLB seasons.

**********************

UPDATE, 7:47 PM: According to Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times, Price will get ?just over $10 million? in 2013. That?s more than double the $4.35 million he made last season in his first year of salary?arbitration.
