The Rockies’ search for a starting left fielder reportedly came to an end on Sunday after the club reached an agreement on a one-year deal with veteran utility player Jurickson Profar, according to multiple reports.
Profar, 30, will reportedly earn a $7.75 million base salary with Colorado but can earn another $1 million in incentives if he reaches 400 plate appearances, per MLB.com. The deal is expected to be finalized pending a physical, though it remains unclear when the physical will take place with Profar not yet back in the United States as of Sunday morning, according to The Denver Gazette.
Jon Heyman of the New York Post was the first to report the deal.
