SAN DIEGO - The San Padres agreed to contracts with all seven of their players in arbitration, including All-Star Tyson Ross and newcomer Sean Kelley.

Ross and Kelley agreed to one-year deals, as did infielder Yonder Alonso and pitchers Ian Kennedy, Andrew Cashner ($4.05 million) and Dale Thayer. Infielder/outfielder Alexi Amarista agreed to a two-year contract.

Ross, a 27-year-old right-hander, won a career-high 13 games with a 2.81 ERA in 31 starts. He had a career-best 195 strikeouts and was named to the National League All-Star team for the first time.

Kelley, a right-handed setup man, was acquired from the New York Yankees in a trade last month. He went 3-6 with four saves and a 4.53 ERA in 59 relief appearances in 2014.
