The Colorado Rockies sign Brad Emaus to the Red Sox

Found January 11, 2012 on Rockies Locker:
TEAMS: Colorado Rockies,  Boston Red Sox

The Rockies have sent 25-year old righty swinging 2B Brad Emaus to the Red Sox for either a player to be named later or cash. Emaus played in 45 games in AAA-ball for the Rockies last year and he was 51 of 163 (.313 avg, .954 OPS) with 37 runs scored, 9 homers, 28 RBIs and 3 stolen bases. The Rockies are not going to miss Emaus too much, if at all, in 2012.
