A's, Sisco Agree To Minor League Deal
By Drew Silva [March 7, 2009 at 9:58am CST]
According to the Denver Post's Troy Renck, the A's have agreed to terms with left-handed reliever Andrew Sisco on a minor league contract.
The deal is worth $550K. Sisco, 26, last pitched in the majors in 2007. He has a 5.18 career ERA in over 147 major league innings. The A's had their sights set on Dennys Reyes, before he signed with the Cardinals, and Joe Beimel, who remains a free agent. Sisco was obviously the cheaper option in the end.
I wold have much rather have gotten Beimel. I don'treally understand this signing, at least it was only a minor league deal.
