Pirates and RHP Jason Grilli avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $1.1 million contract. Grilli was a nice story this past season, compiling a 2.48 ERA and 37/15 K/BB ratio over 32 2/3 innings after joining the Pirates' bullpen in July. The 35-year-old right-hander will help set up for closer Joel Hanrahan in 2012.
