Doubront agreed to a one-year contract with the A's on Wednesday, avoiding arbitration, CSN Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

After coming over from Toronto in a deadline trade, Doubront made 11 appearances (eight starts) spanning 52.2 innings, posting a 5.81 ERA and 1.44 WHIP. He had rather dramatic platoon splits for the season, with a .321 BAA to right-handers and a .225 BAA to same-handed hitters. Look for him compete for a rotation in spot in spring training with a bullpen role being the fallback plan.
