The Dodgers have signed speedy outfielder Rico Noel to a minor league contract and should the Dodgers decide to reopen speed camp in 2016, he just might be the perfect pupil.
Matt Eddy at Baseball America first reported the signing on Dec. 23, and Noel mentioned the news one day later on Instagram and Twitter.
It isn't yet known whether Noel's deal includes a non-roster invitation to spring training.
Noel missed the first month of 2015 on the disabled list and hit just .181/.302/.207 in 67 games between Double-A and Triple-A.
