Rockies signed RHP Tim Redding to a minor league contract.
He'll get an invite to Spring Training. Redding, 32, was non-tendered by the Mets in December after posting a 5.10 ERA and 1.43 WHIP in 30 games (17 starts) last season. He was bothered by shoulder and toe injuries in '09, but that's no real excuse, because there's not much to like here even when he's healthy. He's nothing more than insurance for a starting rotation that has Jeff Francis returning from shoulder surgery. |
