Scottsdale, Arizona, USA (AP) — Skilled slugger Chris Bryant has agreed to sign a $182 million contract to play seven campaigns with the Colorado Rockies, according to one person who is aware of the operation.

The source confirmed an agreement with the Associated Press on Wednesday and asked for anonymity because it would be closed according to the players who passed the physical examination.

Bryant plays his first six major league seasons with the Chicago Cubs, who moved to San Francisco in July, and is heading for his third team in eight months.

In 2016, the National League top player and World Series champion produced 25 home runs and 73 runs with a joint hit effect of 0.265 in the previous season. He scored 8 hits from the Giants defeat in five games against the Dodgers in the postseason.

Despite the fact that the transfer was triggered by a drop in performance in the middle of the season, Bryant was nominated for the fourth time in an all-star career during a solid recovery after a difficult year at the plate in 2020.

The Rocky Mountains clearly liked the view. Bryant went to Colorado and signed a big free agent contract to place himself in the middle of the bat command.He is a beast who can play the third or first base or field. Lokier has Ryan McMahon in the waiting room and CJ Cron in the first place.

Bryant, along with Charlie Blackmon, is also an obvious candidate to be part of the hitters designated by the Rockies.

In his career, Bryant has accumulated a hitting average of 0.278 with 167 home runs, 487 RBI and 0.880 OPS, and he can boost his stats on Coors Field, which is beneficial for the batter. In this scenario, he accumulates two home runs, nine RBI and OPS at 0.757, with a career average of 0.263 (57-15).

The 2015 National League Rookie of the Year will respond with a right swing to the propensity for left-handed hitting by a Rocky Mountains outfielder who has not won a playoff match since 2009.

Employment indicates that Colorado maintains its desire to become a competitive club at the National League West Conference, despite the disagreements that have arisen in the team after a year and a half.

This includes the previous season's Nolan Arena as well as the possible departure of Trevor Story.
