The Colorado Rockies signed former No. 1 overall draft pick Mickey Moniak to a one-year deal on Thursday and added the outfielder to their Opening Day roster.
Moniak, 26, was released by the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday following 2 1/2 seasons with the club.
According to multiple reports, Moniak's deal is worth $1.25 million.
Over five seasons, Moniak is a .230 hitter with a .673 OPS, 32 home runs and 105 RBIs in 275 games with the Philadelphia Phillies (2020-22) and Angels. He was the first overall draft pick by the Phillies in 2016 and traded to the Angels in 2022 in the deal that sent right-hander Noah Syndergaard to Philadelphia.
Moniak displayed promise in 2023 when he batted .280 with 14 homers and 45 RBIs in 85 games for the Angels. But last season, his average dropped to .219 and he had 14 homers and 49 RBIs in a career-high 124 games.
