Marlins' Dustin McGowan: Returns to Marlins on one-year deal

McGowan signed a one-year contract with the Marlins on Wednesday, Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports reports.

Analysis:

A non-roster invitee to major league camp last spring, McGowan earned himself a major league contract this offseason on the strength of the a 2.82 ERA and 1.22 WHIP over 67 innings for the Marlins. He wasn't a big factor in the late innings, however, racking up just three holds and one save, and it's hard to imagine he'll see a big increase in high-leverage work especially with Miami rumored to be in the market for back-end relievers.
