First baseman Anthony Rizzo, who finished last season with the Yankees after a trade from the Chicago Cubs, agreed to a multi-year contract Tuesday night to return to New York, pending a physical, a source told ESPN's Jesse Rogers.
The contract for is two years and $32 million with an opt-out clause after one season, a source said.
During his decadelong career with the Cubs, Rizzo was as reliable as anyone in the batter's box and in the field. He was a consistent all-star and gold glove winner and garnered MVP votes in five consecutive seasons.
