SAN FRANCISCO (AP) --- Free agent outfielder Harrison Bader and the San
Francisco Giants have agreed to a $20.5 million, two-year contract, a person
familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press on Monday.
The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the deal was
subject to a successful physical and had not been announced.
The 31-year-old Bader batted .277 with 17 home runs, 54 RBIs and a .796 OPS in
146 combined games with Minnesota and Philadelphia last season --- setting
career highs in all those categories.
He was especially productive for the Phillies after they acquired him at the
July 31 trade deadline, hitting .305 with an .824 OPS in 50 games for the NL
East champions.
Bader, a Gold Glove center fielder with St. Louis in 2021, played all three
outfield spots for the Twins last season. Philadelphia used him strictly in
center, where he's spent most of his career.
A right-handed batter, Bader is a .247 career hitter with 88 homers, 322 RBIs,
105 stolen bases and a .714 OPS in nine major league seasons with the
Cardinals, Yankees, Reds, Mets, Twins and Phillies.
