The Dodgers are putting together a super bullpen to complement the super team they have assembled.
The Los Angeles club has agreed to a one-year deal with reliever Kirby Yates, a source told MLB.com's Mark Feinsand on Tuesday.
The Dodgers have not confirmed the deal, which would be for $13 million, although he could earn another $500,000 with 50 appearances and another $500,000 with 55 games, according to a source.

The move comes days after the team signed Tanner Scott, who was the best left-handed reliever available on the market, and completes a bullpen that includes Blake Treinen, Michael Kopech, Evan Phillips and Alex Vesia.
The additions of Yates and Scott appear to cap a fairly busy offseason for Los Angeles. The champions secured the services of ace Roki Sasaki from Japan, which was the latest move in several to bolster the lineup and rotation. If there was a hole on their roster, it was the bullpen.
That is no longer the case. The Dodgers have added two All-Star closers in a matter of days.
