Heading into the offseason with the bolstering the bullpen established as a priority, the Rockies signed left-hander Mike Dunn in December. Now Colorado has added more depth to its late innings, reportedly inking Greg Holland to a contract. Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports is reporting the Rockies are in agreement with Holland on a one-year deal with a vesting option for 2018, pending a physical.
Holland coming to the Rockies gives the club another option for closing games. However, he’ll need to show he’s healthy enough to take on that role.
The 31-year-old right-hander missed all of last season after undergoing Tommy John surgery.
