Bradley Zimmer - Page 3 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Avoids arbitration Zimmer and the Guardians agreed to a one-year, $1.3 million deal Tuesday, avoiding arbitration, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

Impact Zimmer enters the season with what appears to be an inside track on a starting job in the outfield. His 15 steals in 348 trips to the plate last season hint at big fantasy upside, but he also struck out 35.1 percent of the time while hitting just .227/.325/.344, so there's no guarantee he holds onto an everyday job.

Displays speed Sunday Zimmer went 2-for-4 with an RBI, two stolen bases and a run scored in Sunday's 6-0 win over Texas.

Impact The outfielder finished the year 15-for-18 in stolen base attempts across 99 games. Zimmer added eight home runs, 34 RBI and 43 runs scored in a part-time role in the corner outfield. He slashed an uninspiring .227/.325/.344 across 348 plate appearances, so he'll likely have to compete for a job in the spring.

Drives in three in win Zimmer went 1-for-3 with a double, three RBI and a run scored in Thursday's 6-1 win over Kansas City.

Impact Zimmer did well to make productive outs, as he hit two sacrifice flies in the contest. The outfielder has seen fairly regular playing time to close the season, but he's batted a meager .157 through 23 games in September. With a .226/.327/.348 slash line across 336 plate appearances, the 28-year-old hasn't been able to establish himself as much more than a rotational corner outfielder.
