Flaherty's signed a one-year, $1.075 million contract to avoid arbitration, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reports.

Analysis:

Flaherty can earn another $25,000 if he gets 400 plate appearances, which seems unlikely but not unthinkable. While the Orioles value him for his versatility, Flaherty offers little in the way of speed, batting average or on-base skills. He owns a .221/.283/.369 slash line through 680 career at-bats, with 23 home runs and just four stolen bases. He does have more power than your typical utility player, but Flaherty is rarely used against left-handed pitchers, and he also struggles to hit right-handers. All but four of his 280 at-bats last season came from the bottom third of the batting order.
