Pirates re-sign Andrew McCutchen to one-year contract, per reports

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- The Pittsburgh Pirates announced on Monday that they have re-signed longtime outfielder/designated hitter Andrew McCutchen to another contract.

McCutchen, 38, signed the one-year deal for a reported $5 million, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

The 2013 National League MVP still proved more than capable at the plate during the 2024 season, hitting 20 home runs (including the 300th of his career) with a .232 batting average and .739 OPS.

Selected by the Pirates 11th overall in the 2005 MLB draft, McCutchen debuted in 2009 and quickly established himself as a premier player in the Pirates' lineup, finishing his debut season with a .286 average, 12 home runs, and 54 RBI.

McCutchen also owns four Silver Slugger Awards, a Gold Glove, and has made five All-Star appearances.
