D-backs deal with Bob Howry

According to the Arizona Republic, the D-backs have reached a one-year contract agreement with right-hander Bob Howry. It is reported that Howry has agreed to a one-year deal with an option for 2011. The D-backs declined to comment on the report.

Howry was born in Phoenix and went to Deer Valley High School. Last season, Howry went 2-6 with a 3.39 ERA in 64 appearances for the Giants in giants jersey. He made more 70 appearances than the previous four seasons. The D-backs have pursued a reliever throughout the offseason. They went after LaTroy Hawkins, who signed with the Brewers and Matt Capps, who signed with the Nationals.
