Dodgers, Scott Alexander Reach Contract Agreement
The Dodgers and lefty reliever Scott Alexander agreed to terms on a one-year deal this week, not long before Wednesday’s deadline of offering contracts to potential non-tender candidates.
Bob Nightengale of USA TODAY Sports was among the first to report the news, indicating that Alexander’s deal was worth a flat $1 million, all of which is fully guaranteed.
The non-tender deadline allows teams to offer contracts to players on the 40-man roster who are normally on the edge of the big league side, often being eligible for salary arbitration.
Alexander found himself in a similar predicament last year.
