The Oakland A’s re-signed reliever Deolis Guerra to a one-year contract on Tuesday, reports Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. Guerra avoids arbitration and will get an $815,000 salary in 2022.
The right-hander joined the A’s last winter on a minor league contract and spent almost the entire season in Oakland’s bullpen, quietly serving as an effective arm in the middle innings. He was especially helpful as a long reliever, working three innings on three occasions and recording at least five outs in 15 of his 53 appearances.
