Updated Mar. 5, 2020 2:09 a.m. ET

MILWAUKEE -- The Brewers and right-hander Wily Peralta reached agreement on a $2.8 million, one-year contract Friday to avoid arbitration, a big raise from his $525,000 salary last season.

Also reaching terms on one-year agreements Friday with Milwaukee were shortstop Jean Segura on a $2.6 million deal and left-hander Will Smith for $1,475,000 million. Segura made $534,000 last season and Smith $512,500.

After two straight seasons making 32 starts, Peralta went 5-10 with a 4.72 ERA in 20 starts while dealing with a nagging oblique strain.

Smith went a career-best 7-2 with a 2.70 ERA in 76 appearances over 63 1-3 innings last year.
