Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reports that Former Oriole Melvin Mora has reached a one-year, $1.3 million deal with the Colorado Rockies.
Mora, 38, spent about 9.5 seasons with the Orioles. He will fill what Rosenthal refers to as a "super-utility role". The last time he was in the National League was in 2000, when he played with the New York Mets before being traded at the deadline.
A career .278 hitter, he is coming off one of his worst seasons, which included poor base-running and a feud with the manager.
