Hot-Stove: Sean Rodriguez and the Rays come to terms without entering arbitration

MLB Trade Rumors has reported that Sean Rodriguez has come to terms on a new contract with the Rays without having to enter arbitration. Rodriguez signed a one-year, $1MM deal, tweeted Roger Mooney of the Tampa Tribune.

Rodriguez was projected by MLBTR to earn about $1.2MM  in his first year of arbitration. A $1MM salary for 2013 seems reasonable considering that he posted a .213 BA/.281 OBP/.326 SLG/.607 OPS slash line in 342 plate appearances last season.
