Reds, Arredondo Avoid Arbitration
By Dan Mennella [January 26 at 6:57pm CST]
The Reds and reliever Jose Arredondo have avoided arbitration by agreeing to terms on a two-year contract, the team announced via Twitter.
Good looks like everyone is in the fold, offseason complete!
I really REALLY like Arredondo. Im glad to see he's here longer than just this year.

I'm a big fan too.
Hey this is off topic but I was wanting to know if the redscaravan will be in huntington or charleston today? They were at one of the two places yesterday but I did'nt know it.thanks
Two years, $2M according to Jon Heyman

oh that is a very good contract for the Reds, considering his upside.
And if he thrives, He'll be the cheapest closer in baseball in 2013.
Arredondo is very inconsistent, even flat-out wild at times. But he was knocking the rust off last year after almost two full years off and was still at least solid. Have to think he'll be even better this season. I also like the fact that the young man knows how to miss bats.
Another solid offseason move. Not that it really matters since he was under team control anyway for the next 3 years, but one less thing to worry about next offseason (going to arbitration with Arredondo). And if he does get hurt again, not a huge risk taken by the Reds. They'd be out a million bucks. Not ideal, but nothing that would greatly affect the team.
