Diamondbacks general manager Kevin Towers continued his busy off-season today re-signing second baseman Aaron Hill to a new contract, according to Nick Piecoro, beat writer for the Arizona Republic. Piecoro tweets that the deal is for two years and is worth “a little north of $10 million.”

Hill, who came to the D-Backs last season along with John McDonald in exchange for Kelly Johnson, hit .315 with 2HR and 16RBI in 33 games with Arizona, while also batting .278 with 1HR and 1RBI in five playoff games.

The 29-year old second baseman had an option in his old contract declined by Arizona earlier in the off-season, but rumour had it that Arizona wanted to re-sign the infielder.

As well as Hill, Towers has already re-signed McDonald, catcher Henry Blanco and infielder Willie Bloomquist to new contracts, while signing pitcher Chris Jakabauskas to a minor league deal.
