Arizona Diamondbacks Reach $3.25M, One-Year Deal With Reliever Greg Holland

Reliever Greg Holland and the Arizona Diamondbacks have agreed to a $3.25 million, one-year contract. The deal allows Holland to earn an additional $3.5 million in bonuses.

Holland, a 33-year-old right-hander, was 2-2 with a 4.66 ERA with St. Louis and Washington last season, when he earned $14 million. He has a 2.83 ERA in eight major league seasons. With Kansas City, Holland had a 1.80 ERA in 2011, a 1.21 ERA and 47 saves in 2013 and a 1.44 ERA with 46 saves in 2014. An elbow injury that required surgery in 2015 affected his velocity, but he has remained mostly effective.

Holland pitched one season for Colorado before going to St. Louis last year. Holland was released by the Cardinals after going 0-2 with a 7.92 ERA in 32 games. He signed with Washington and was 2-0 with a 0.84 ERA in 24 games for the Nationals.
