Tony Wolters Signs With Pirates
4 years agoThe Pittsburgh Pirates signed free-agent catcher Tony Wolters to a minor league deal with an invite to spring training on Thursday. Wolters became a free agent this offseason when the Colorado Rockies non-tendered him in December. The 28-year-old will serve as catching depth behind backstops Michael Perez and Jacob Stallings. Wolters, a left-handed hitter, is a converted shortstop who is mostly known for his work with the glove. In five big-league seasons with Colorado, he slashed .238/.323/.319 with seven home runs, 123 RBI and six stolen bases over 391 games (1,232 plate appearances). Fantasy managers can ignore Wolters for the time being, even in deep NL-only setups.
