Sean Burnett reportedly signs minor league deal with Dodgers

The Dodgers' search for left-handed relief pitching reportedly found a bounce-back candidate in Sean Burnett, signed to a minor league deal per Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports.

Burnett's contract will include an opt-out clause on May 1 if he isn't added to the roster, per Rosenthal.

The Dodgers are currently carrying just one left-handed reliever in J.P. Howell, with both Adam Liberatore and Luis Avilan optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Burnett hasn't pitched since the 2014 season and in the last three years combined has pitched a total of 16u2153 innings in the majors and minors.
