Sources: Rays, Amed Rosario agree to 1-year, $1.5M contract

Infielder Amed Rosario and the Tampa Bay Rays are in agreement on a one-year, $1.5 million contract, sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan on Tuesday.

Rosario, 28, will bring a strong bat against left-handed pitching and should get at-bats at shortstop, second base and potentially corner-outfield spots with Tampa Bay.

He was traded from the Cleveland Guardians to the Los Angeles Dodgers in exchange for Noah Syndergaard before the 2023 trade deadline. He hit a combined .263 in 142 games between the two teams, with 70 runs, 58 RBIs and 15 stolen bases.
