Jan. 31, 2013 - 9:40 PM ET

Pirates avoided arbitration with 2B Neil Walker by agreeing to a one-year, $3.3 million contract.

They settled at the midpoint of figures that were exchanged earlier this month. The Pirates have expressed interest in signing Walker, who qualified for arbitration for the first time this winter as Super Two player, to an extension, but they'll settle for a one-year deal for now.
