Carrasco and Pirates agree to Minors deal

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported that the Pirates agreed to a Minor League deal with reliever D.J. Carrasco, who is set to make $950,000 if he can earn up to $250,000 in performance bonuses. The five-year veteran has a career 20-16 record and a 4.45 ERA in 181 appearances with the Royals and White Sox. Carrasco became a free agent after the White Sox decided not to give him a contract.

Carrasco went 5-1 with a 3.76 ERA in 49 appearances in the white sox jersey in 2009. He struck out 62 batters while walking 29 in 93 1/3 innings.
