Carlos Gonzalez Finalizes Contract With Rockies
7 years agoUpdating a previous report, free-agent outfielder Carlos Gonzalez has re-signed a one-year contract worth $8 million with the Colorado Rockies, according to Bob Nightengale of USA TODAY. The already crowded outfield consisting of David Dahl, Charlie Blackmon, Gerardo Parra and Ian Desmond will be even more crowded than before. This signing hurts the value of first baseman Ryan McMahon the most, because if he does win the first base job, he will be most likely moved down in the order. The signing could also lead to Desmond moving to first base and McMahon to the bench. Look for Gonzalez to bounce back this year, and he should now be owned in all formats, although he may not see everyday playing time in right field.
