The New York Yankees reached contract agreements with right-hander Nathan Eovaldi and shortstop Didi Gregorius on Tuesday.
The Yankees avoided arbitration with Eovaldi with a one-year, non-guaranteed contract. No finacial terms were immediately available.
Gregorius and the Yankees reached agreement on a one-year, $2,425,000 deal, which was a significant increase from his $553,900 salary in 2015. His contract also is not guaranteed.
Gregorius had asked for $2.525 million and the Yankees offered $2.3 million when aribitration figures were exchanged in December.
The deals with Eovaldi and Gregorius leave the Yankees with closer Aroldis Chapman, acquired from the Cincinnati Reds last month, and starting pitcher Ivan Nova as their only players remaining in arbitration.
