The Pittsburgh Pirates signed reliever Caleb Ferguson to a one-year contract, the club announced Friday.

The deal is worth $3 million, a source told Alex Stumpf of MLB.com.

Ferguson posted a 4.64 ERA with 1.49 WHIP but had a career-high 11.1 K/9 over a combined 62 appearances between the New York Yankees and Houston Astros last season.
