The Colorado Rockies sign Casey Blake

The Rockies have signed 38-year old righty swinging 3B Casey Blake to a 1-year, $2 million dollar deal. Blake played in 63 games for the Dodgers last year and he was 51 for 202 (.252 avg, .713 OPS) with 32 runs scored, 4 homers, 26 RBIs and 1 stolen base. He has now played in 1,265 games in his first 13 years in the majors and he is 1,186 of 4,500 (.264 avg, .778 OPS) with 644 runs scored, 167 homers, 616 RBIs and 36 stolen bases. Blake will get a shot to compete for the starting 3B job for the Rockies next spring.
