Mark Reynolds’ free agency lasted until February, but it looks like he is heading back to Colorado.
Fan Rag Sports’ Jon Heyman reported on Wednesday that Reynolds has agreed to a minor league deal with Colorado to return to the Rockies.
Even though it’s just a minor league deal, there is a good chance Reynolds makes the big league club.
Reynolds batted .282 with 14 home runs in 393 at-bats last season for the Rockies. The team now has less room to give him at-bats after signing Ian Desmond to a five-year deal.
Reynolds, 33, struck out 112 times last season and is a career .234 hitter, but he does have power with 251 career home runs. He thrived at Coors Field last season batting .310 there.
