    Oakland Athletics reach deal with outfielder Matt Joyce

    Outfielder Matt Joyce will play for his fourth team in four years next season, agreeing to a two-year deal with the Oakland Athletics.

    Sources told ESPN's Buster Olney that he will receive $11 million over the course of the contract. The agreement was first reported by Fox Sports.

    Joyce played in 140 games for the Pirates last season, batting .242 with 13 homers and 42 RBIs in 293 plate appearances.

    The 32-year-old played for the Los Angeles Angels in 2015 after he was traded there by the Tampa Bay Rays. His best seasons came with Tampa where he played for six years. He earned his only All-Star honor in 2011 when he had career highs in batting average (.277), homers (19), RBIs (75) and steals (13).
