ESPN’s Jeff Passan adds that the agreement contains a team option for Astros, while Baez will get a chance to up his earnings with a number of bonuses and escalators.

The deal is expected to be finalized once the 32-year-old player undergoes physical.

Astros entered the offseason with a goal to add depth to their bullpen, and signing Baez gets them closer to that goal. The franchise previously also added right-hand reliever Ryne Stanek to a one-year deal.

Pedro Baez spent his entire career in the majors with LA Dodgers, who gave him his MLB debut back in 2014. At the end of last season, he was the player with the longest active tenure as a Dodger behind ace Clayton Kershaw and All-Star Kenley Jansen.

Baez played 355 MLB games with the Dodgers, serving as a closer in 51 of them and posting a 21-15 record. He has a 3.03 ERA to go with 369 strikeouts and three saves.

The move looks like one for the future, considering there is a small chance that Kahnle makes the field in 2021 as the 31-year-old pitcher underwent a Tommy John surgery in August and is expected to miss anywhere between 12 and 14 months.

Kahnle played just one inning with New York Yankees in 2020, striking out three while allowing a hit and a walk against Washington Nationals. Several days later he felt discomfort in his arm during practice and was shut down for the season.

Yankees opted to send him on a minor league assignment in October, but Kahnle rejected it and instead used his right to become a free agent.

By acquiring Tommy Kahnle, the Dodgers got themselves a reliable arm in 2022 when they might lose Kenley Jansen and/or Joe Kelly. Kahnle could also be helpful in the 2021 postseason if his rehab goes according to plan.

Kahnle made his MLB debut with Colorado Rockies in 2014, spending two seasons with the franchise before embarking on two-year stints with Chicago White Sox and Yankees. He has 285 career games in which he posted a 9-9 record, four saves, 3.82 ERA, and 344 strikeouts.

Dodgers announced that Bellinger underwent shoulder surgery on Tuesday but reassured the fans that the 25-year-old player won’t miss significant time. According to the announcement, Bellinger will recover in full by Spring Training.

Bellinger got hurt in Game 7 of the National League Championship Series against the Atlanta Braves. He dislocated his shoulder while celebrating a homer and seemed to be in great discomfort after it.

Luckily for the Dodgers, the medical staff managed to patch up Bellinger, and he ended up playing through the rest of the playoffs and helping the franchise to win its first World Series since 1998.

Cody Bellinger hit .239 with 12 homers and 30 RBIs during the regular MLB season. His batting average dropped to .212 during playoffs, but he still managed to make some big plays and end the postseason with four home runs and 13 RBIs.    

Bellinger made his MLB debut in 2017 but has already managed to accomplish some big things. Besides the World Series win, he also has an NL MVP award from 2019 to his name, as well as two All-Star nods.
