The Pittsburgh Pirates have agreed to a one year, $1.75 M deal with Gaby Sanchez, according to the Beverly Hills Sports Council on Twitter. The two sides will avoid arbitration.

Sanchez was projected to make $1.8 M by MLBTR, so this doesn’t change the 2013 40-man payroll projection much. His bonuses are currently unknown.
