PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. (AP) — Relief pitchers Brooks Pounders and Deck McGuire have agreed to minor league contracts with the Tampa Bay Rays.

The Rays announced the agreements Friday and expect the right-handers in spring training on Saturday.

Pounders split last season between the Indians and Mets organizations, making 43 appearances at the Triple-A level and seven with the Mets.

McGuire pitched for the Samsung Lions in South Korea last year.
