Milwaukee Brewers re-sign Manny Pina to a one-year contract to avoid arbitration

Over the past 24 hours the Brewers have inked three catchers. They signed Luke Maile yesterday. Earlier today they tendered Omar Narvaez a contract. Finally it was announced that the Brewers signed the “Pineapple,” Manny Pina. Pina and the Brewers avoided arbitration as the two sides agreed to a 1-year, $1.65M contract.

Pina was having a very nice season for Milwaukee in 2020 until he tore a meniscus in his knee. Pina has been an underrated MLB catcher since coming from Detroit in the Francisco Rodriguez trade.

Arbitration predictions had Pina making $2.
