The Rockies have turned to a homegrown pitcher to help reconstruct their bullpen, signing right-hander Pierce Johnson to a one-year contract the club announced.
Johnson, 31, will compete for a late-inning role and could emerge as the primary right-handed set-up man for closer Daniel Bard. The Rockiesto free agency earlier this month when the right-hander signed a two-year, $13.5 million deal with the Angels. He was an effective reliever for the Padres in 2020 and ’21, posting a 3.09 ERA, with 104 strikeouts vs. 36 walks in 78 2/3 innings.
The Rockies are clearly trying to re-stock their bullpen with experienced arms. They gave Bard, 37, a, and re-signed righty Dinelson Lamet, 30, to a one-year $5 million contract. Last month, the Rockies claimed veteran lefty Brent Suter off waivers from the Brewers. Suter, 33, then signed a one-year, $3 million contract.
