MLB in brief: Kris Bryant on 60-day injured list | Jonah Heim to Atlanta

Kris Bryant on the 60-day injured list

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Spring training starts, and Rockies 1B Kris Bryant goes on the 60-day IL where he'll be out for at least the first 57 games of the season. Bryant, who played only 11 games last season, has played in 170 games in the first four years of his 7-year, $182 million contract.

Spencer Schwellenbach too, for that matter.

With Spencer Schwellenbach hitting the 60-day IL, Chris Bassitt feels like a Braves-esque move, says @ErikKratz31.

Jonah Heim to Atlanta

Nice little gamble.

Catcher Jonah Heim is in camp with the Braves. Seems like a good candidate to begin the backup catcher while Murphy begins the season on the IL. Murphy will begin running exercises today. Still aiming to be activated at some point in May.

Tomoyuki Sugano in Colorado

He will earn $5.1 million.

Right-hander Tomoyuki Sugano and the Colorado Rockies have agreed to a one-year, $5.1 million contract, a source tells ESPN. @harding_at_mlb broke the deal first. And catching up on other credit: @ChrisCotillo was first on Aaron Civale going to the A's.

Aaron Civale, meanwhile, is headed to Sacramento.

Right-hander Aaron Civale and the A's have agreed to a one-year, $6 million contract, sources tell ESPN. Civale, 30, adds a veteran arm to an A's team hoping to compete for a postseason spot this year and can earn an additional $1.5 million in incentives.

Garrett Crochet the #1 starter

No surprises in Boston.

Garrett Crochet is the Opening Day starter. “Let's get that shit over with,” Alex Cora said.

Number retired for Evan Longoria

Well done.

Evan Longoria's number will be retired by the Rays, in addition to being inducted into the team's Hall of Fame in July, the team announced. pic.twitter.com/cC2wUkpqFU
