The Dodgers signed Barney to a one-year deal worth $2.53 million, Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times reports. The two sides were able to avoid arbitration with the deal. He should continue to provide infield depth, primarily working as a defensive replacement late in games. In 262 plate appearances splitting time with the Cubs and Dodgers last season, Barney slashed .241/.300/.342 with three home runs and one steal -- numbers that are almost exactly in line with his career norms.
