FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) -- The Boston Red Sox have reached agreement with left-hander Chris Capuano on a $2.25 million, one-year contract, according to a person familiar with the situation.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity on Thursday because completion of the deal was pending a physical. Capuano can earn an additional $2.75 million in performance bonuses.
Capuano, 35, has spent his first nine seasons in the National League, the last two with the Los Angeles Dodgers. He was 4-7 with a 4.26 ERA last season when he went on the disabled list twice and was limited to 24 appearances, 20 of them starts. In 2012, he made an NL-high 33 starts and was 12-12 with a career-best 3.72 ERA.
