The Rockies have signed 38-year old lefty swinging 1B Jason Giambi to a minor league deal. Giambi played in 83 games for the A’s this season and he was 52 for 269 (.193 avg, .697 OPS) with 39 runs scored, 11 homers and 40 RBIs. Giambi has now played in 1,933 games in his major league career and he is 1,864 for 6,601 (.282 avg, .932 OPS) with 1,155 runs scored, 407 homers, 1,319 RBIs and 18 stolen bases. This was a good signing for the Rockies as Giambi will give them power off the bench in September when rosters expand.
