Following some patterns of our recent discussions, the Dodgers on Tuesday morning reportedly signed pitcher Jimmy Nelson to a one-year contract.
Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times was among the first to reveal the news. According to the information shared by Castillo, Nelson will have every opportunity to earn a spot in the big league starting rotation right out of spring training. Should that particular scenario not work out, the Dodgers will apparently consider him to play a role as a major league reliever.
The deal guarantees Nelson at least $1 million.
