Diamondbacks and LHP Tony Sipp avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $1.275 million contract.
It's a nice score for the 29-year-old left-hander, who posted a 4.42 ERA and 51/23 K/BB ratio across 55 innings in 2012 while earning close to the major league minimum. He was arbitration-eligible for the first time.
