Rockies Agree To Minor-League Deal With Keston Hiura
The Colorado Rockies agreed to a minor-league deal with free-agent infielder Keston Hiura on Wednesday that includes an invite to major-league spring training, according to a source. Along with Hiura, the Rockies also signed free-agent outfielder Nick Martini to a minor-league deal. After not appearing the big leagues since 2022 with the Milwaukee Brewers, Hiura resurfaced in 2024 with the Los Angeles Angels late in the year and went 4-for-27 (.148) with no homers and one RBI while striking out 10 times in 10 games played. The landing spot in Colorado is a nice one for the 28-year-old right-handed power bat, but Hiura will face long odds to carve out regular playing time with the Rockies if he returns to the majors in 2025. He resurfaced in Anaheim last year after posting a strong .943 OPS with 26 home runs at Triple-A Salt Lake.
