WASHINGTON (AP) -The Washington Nationals agreed Saturday to sign left-handed reliever Ray King and utility infielder Pete Orr to minor-league contracts.
King made 55 appearances with the Nationals this year, often with the job of retiring just one left-handed hitter, before he was traded to Milwaukee on Sept. 4 for prospect Andrew Lefave. King, who turns 34 next month, is 20-23 with two saves and a 3.43 ERA over nine major league seasons.
The 28-year-old Orr spent three seasons with Atlanta. He hit .200 with two RBIs in 57 games this year. His best season came as a rookie in 2005, when he batted .300 with one homer, eight RBIs and seven stolen bases in 112 games.
The Braves designated Orr for assignment last month.
