The Baltimore Orioles are bringing back a familiar face, as the club has reportedly agreed to a minor-league deal with outfielder Michael Bourn, according to The Baltimore Sun's Eduardo A. Encina.
The 34-year-old will also receive an invite to Baltimore's major-league camp this spring, and could earn $2 million if he makes the big-league roster, reports FanRag Sports' Jon Heyman.
Bourn split time in 2016 between the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Orioles, slashing a combined .264/.314/.371 in 375 at-bats.
Able to play all three outfield positions, Bourn is expected to add depth in the field behind Hyun Soo Kim, Adam Jones, and Seth Smith.
