The Atlanta Braves reached agreement with free agent infielder Sean Rodriguez on a two-year deal, according to reports Thursday.
The deal is worth more than $11 million and is pending a physical for the nine-year veteran, according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports and the MLB Network.
The 31-year-old Rodriguez hit .260 with 22 home runs and 73 RBIs in the past two seasons with the Pittsburgh Pirates. He batted .270 with 18 homers and 56 RBIs last season in 140 games — all career highs — when he made $2.5 million.
Rodriguez played two seasons with the Los Angeles Angels and five seasons with the Tampa Bay Rays. He is a career .234 hitter with 67 home runs and 259 RBIs.
