Nicasio will earn $2.3 million after making $2,025,000 last year, when he was 6-6 with a 5.38 ERA for Colorado. Turner will get $2.5 million after earning $1,275,000 last season, when he hit .340 with 43 RBI and seven home runs.
Friday's deals came a day after new outfielder Chris Heisey agreed to a $2.16 million, one-year deal. He made $1.76 million with Cincinnati last season.
