HOUSTON - Right-hander Jake Odorizzi and the Houston Astros finalized a $20.25 million, two-year contract Monday that guarantees $20.25 million over two years or $23.5 million over three seasons. The deal contains additional performance bonuses that could make it worth at least $33.25 million over three years and possibly more depending on appearances in 2021 and ‘22. Odorizzi enhances a Houston rotation that lost Framber Valdéz indefinitely to a broken finger this spring. To clear a roster spot for Odorizzi, the Astros placed reliever Pedro Báez on the injured list. Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading...
