With Mychal Givens and the Colorado Rockies reaching an agreement before the arbitration deadline, the right-handed reliever can now focus on what he must do to succeed at pitching in Denver.

On Thursday, news broke that the Colorado Rockies had avoided arbitration and reached a one-year deal with relief pitcher Mychal Givens, reportedly worth $4.05 million. That number will make him the highest-paid member of the Rockies bullpen, per calculations from Cot’s Contracts.
