Free-agent left-handed-hitting outfielder Bradley Zimmer reached a minor-league deal with the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday that includes an invitation to major-league spring training, according to a source. The Rockies have been looking for a left-handed hitter who can play all three outfield spots and can spell Brenton Doyle in center field. Zimmer didn't play at all in the big leagues last year, instead spending time at the Triple-A level with both the Los Angeles Dodgers and Boston Red Sox, hitting a combined .210/.326/.346 with eight home runs, 32 RBI and 20 stolen bases in 82 minor-league contests. The 31-year-old former first-rounder has spent six years in the big leagues with three different teams and has hit just .213 (183-for-859) with 21 homers, 91 RBI and 42 stolen bases in 372 career games. At best, he'll be a reserve outfielder for Colorado in 2024.
