Left-hander Scott Olsen has agreed to a $2.8 million, one-year contract with the Washington Nationals, avoiding arbitration.
The Nationals announced the deal Sunday.
Olsen was acquired with outfielder Josh Willingham in a five-player trade with the Florida Marlins in November.
The 25-year-old went 8-11 with a 4.20 ERA in 33 starts for Florida last season, and is 31-37 with a 4.63 ERA in 102 games over his four-year career.
