LOS ANGELES -- The Los Angeles Dodgers and Cuban pitcher Yaisel Sierra have finalized a $30 million, six-year contract.
The 24-year-old right-hander will get a $6 million signing bonus in the deal announced Sunday.
Half of the bonus is payable 15 days after the contract is approved by Major League Baseball and Sierra obtains all permissions needed to enter and work in the U.S. The other half is payable on Dec. 15.
Sierra will report to the team's spring training camp in Glendale, Arizona, once his visa issues are resolved. The sides agreed to the deal last month.
