Matt Kemp has found a new home with the Colorado Rockies.

Former Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp will be returning to the National League West after signing with the Colorado Rockies, according to USA Today. It appears to be a minor league deal.

The three-time All Star will replace Ian Desmond who announced through a powerful message on social media on Monday that he will opt out of playing this season for a variety of health, family, and social justice considerations.
