LOS ANGELES - Pitcher Brandon McCarthy and the Los Angeles Dodgers have finalized a four-year contract.

The deal was agreed to last week at the winter meetings and announced Tuesday.

A 31-year-old right-hander, McCarthy was 3-10 with a 5.01 ERA in 18 starts this year for Arizona, which traded him to the Yankees on July 6 for pitcher Vidal Nuno. McCarthy went 7-5 with a 2.89 ERA in 14 starts for New York.

McCarthy has a 52-65 record and 4.09 ERA in nine big league seasons that also included time with the Chicago White Sox (2005-06), Texas (2007-09) and Oakland (2011-12). Arizona signed him before the 2013 season.
