James Paxton and the Los Angeles Dodgers reworked their one-year contract, lowering the guarantee to $7 million from $11 million while still allowing the 35-year-old left-hander to earn up to $13 million if he is healthy during the early part of the season and starts at least 20 games. The restructured contract was first reported by The Athletic.
Right-hander John Brebbia and the Chicago White Sox finalized a $5.5 million, one-year contract on Friday that includes a mutual option for 2025. Brebbia can earn $1 million annually in performance bonuses for games: $250,000 each for 45, 50, 55 and 60. Brebbia was 3-5 with a 3.99 ERA in 40 appearances and 10 starts for San Francisco last season.
