The Cincinnati Reds have been looking for a big-time power hitter all offseason, and just found one after signing former Colorado Rockies first baseman Michael Toglia to a minor-league contract. It's presumed that his deal includes a non-roster invite to spring training.
Toglia will undoubtedly bring some thunder to Goodyear next month, but the 27-year-old has a familiar flaw that will make it quite difficult for him to break camp with the big-league ball club. He swings and misses a lot. In fact, last season with the Rockies, Toglia struck out nearly 40% of the time.
