OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) - The Oakland Athletics have acquired right-hander Chris Resop from the Pittsburgh Pirates for minor league right-hander Zach Thornton.

The A's also announced Friday they agreed to one-year deals with first baseman Daric Barton ($1.1 million) and infielder Adam Rosales ($700,000). Oakland designated right-hander Sandy Rosario for assignment and said it will not offer a contract to outfielder Jermaine Mitchell.

Resop was 1-4 with one save and a 3.91 ERA in 61 relief appearances with Pittsburgh last year.

Thornton went 4-0 with 16 saves and a 4.53 ERA in 48 relief appearances for Class A Stockton last season.
