Pressly and the Twins avoided arbitration by signing a one-year, $1.175 million deal Friday, Jerry Crasnick of ESPN reports.
Pressly was leading the American league in appearances before the Twins decided to reduce his workload, so they would appear to consider him a valuable innings eater out of the bullpen. In total, he posted a 3.70 ERA in 75.1 innings while striking out 67.
