[Note] Bartlett, Rays agree on 1-year contract
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP)—Shortstop Jason Bartlett and the Tampa Bay Rays
agreed Tuesday on a one-year contract worth $1,981,250, avoiding arbitration.
Bartlett, part of the November 2007 trade that also brought right-hander Matt
Garza to the AL champions in exchange for Delmon Young, made $412,500 while
helping solidify the Rays’defense last season.
Manager Joe Maddon often referred to the 29-year-old as Tampa Bay's most
valuable player during the team's run to the World Series. The Rays were 78-47
when he was in the lineup, compared to 7-9 when he was on the disabled list and
19-18 when he did not start.
Bartlett batted a team-leading .286 with one homer, 37 RBIs and 20 stolen bases.
He hit an AL-best .379 against left-handed pitching.
His deal left third baseman Willy Aybar and catcher Dioner Navarro as the last
Rays in arbitration.
