Orioles and OF Adam Jones avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $6.15 million contract. Jones filed for $7.4 million and was offered $5 million by the Orioles when arbitration numbers were exchanged last month. It took a little more than three weeks for the two sides to reach a middle ground. Jones batted .280/.319/.466 with 25 home runs, 83 RBI and 12 stolen bases in 151 games last year for Baltimore. He's slated to become a free agent after the 2013 season.
