Rays reportedly sign Carlos Gomez for one year

\n","providerName":"Twitter","providerUrl":"https://twitter.com","thumbnail_url":null,"type":"oembed","width":550,"contentType":"rich"},{"__typename":"Markdown","content":"The right-handed-hitting Gomez, 32, slashed .255/.340/.462 for the Rangers, with 17 home runs and 13 stolen bases while manning center field in 2017.
Gomez has spent the bulk of his Major League career as a center fielder, but that won't be the case with the Rays, who have American League Gold Glove Award-winning center fielder Kevin Kiermaier locking down the position. Clearly, right field looks to be Gomez's destination, with veteran Denard Span and Mallex Smith left to compete for the job in left field.
:: Spring Training coverage presented by Camping World ::
Gomez is the only player to accrue at least 12 home runs and 12 steals in each of the last six seasons. However, he has played 150 games or more in a season just once in his career and has averaged 112 games per season since 2015.
The Rays have been able to cut significant salary in the last week with their series of moves. Gone are Odorizzi ($6.3 million), Dickerson ($5.95 million) and Souza ($3.55 million), with cheaper replacements in Gomez and C.J. Cron ($2.3 million).
Fantasy spin | Fred Zinkie (@FredZinkieMLB)
While he can no longer match his heyday production of 20-plus homers and roughly 35 steals, Gomez still warrants attention in deep mixed leagues after averaging 15 homers and 15.5 steals across the past two seasons. With the addition of the 32-year-old Gomez to a rapidly changing Rays roster, the speedy Smith will likely move to a reserve role and no longer merits a draft pick in mixed formats.","type":"text"},{"__typename":"Video","contentDate":"2018-02-21T20:58:02Z","preferredPlaybackScenarioURL({\"preferredPlaybacks\":\"mp4AvcPlayback\"})":"http://mediadownloads.mlb.com/mlbam/mp4/2018/02/21/1875182183/1519246615771/asset_450K.mp4","type":"video","description":"MLB.com fantasy writer Fred Zinkie analyzes the fantasy impact Carlos Gomez will have in 2018 as a member of the Tampa Bay Rays","displayAsVideoGif":false,"duration":"00:00:58","slug":"fantasy-impact-of-gomez-to-rays-c1875182183","tags":[{"__typename":"PersonTag","slug":"playerid-460576","title":"Carlos Gomez","person":{"__ref":"Person:460576"},"type":"player"},{"__typename":"TeamTag","slug":"teamid-139","title":"Tampa Bay Rays","team":{"__ref":"Team:139"},"type":"team"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-team-id-139","title":"HBmig American League All-Stars","type":"unsupported"},{"__typename":"InternalTag","slug":"hbmig-mlbtax-mm-analysis","title":"HBmig Analysis","type":"unsupported"}],"thumbnail":{"__typename":"Thumbnail","templateUrl":"https://img.mlbstatic.com/mlb-images/image/private/{formatInstructions}/mlb/qmm2cbmjsgiewkfv2jxe"},"title":"Fantasy impact of Gomez to Rays","relativeSiteUrl":"/video/fantasy-impact-of-gomez-to-rays-c1875182183"}],"relativeSiteUrl":"/news/rays-reportedly-sign-carlos-gomez-for-one-year-c266868766","contentType":"news","subHeadline":null,"summary":"PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. -- The Rays wasted little time in addressing their void in right field, agreeing with Carlos G��mez on an incentive-laden one-year, $4 million deal, sources tell MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez.

PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. -- The Rays wasted little time in addressing their void in right field, agreeing with Carlos Gómez on an incentive-laden one-year, $4 million deal, sources tell MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez. The Rays have not confirmed the report
A day after trading Steven Souza Jr. and four days after trading Jake Odorizzi and designating 2017 All-Star Corey Dickerson for assignment, the Rays were in a buying mood on Wednesday. Gomez will provide an intriguing power-speed combination to an outfield corner.
Spring Training:Info | Tickets | Schedule | Gear
Following Tuesday night's Souza trade, Rays GM Erik Neander said that the Odorizzi and Dickerson moves had been motivated by the team having depth at their respective positions, but Neander acknowledged that no such depth existed in right field. Thus, the Rays would be in the market for a right fielder.
Gomez looks like the perfect fit.

The right-handed-hitting Gomez, 32, slashed .255/.340/.462 for the Rangers, with 17 home runs and 13 stolen bases while manning center field in 2017.
Gomez has spent the bulk of his Major League career as a center fielder, but that won't be the case with the Rays, who have American League Gold Glove Award-winning center fielder Kevin Kiermaier locking down the position. Clearly, right field looks to be Gomez's destination, with veteran Denard Span and Mallex Smith left to compete for the job in left field.
:: Spring Training coverage presented by Camping World ::
Gomez is the only player to accrue at least 12 home runs and 12 steals in each of the last six seasons. However, he has played 150 games or more in a season just once in his career and has averaged 112 games per season since 2015.
The Rays have been able to cut significant salary in the last week with their series of moves. Gone are Odorizzi ($6.3 million), Dickerson ($5.95 million) and Souza ($3.55 million), with cheaper replacements in Gomez and C.J. Cron ($2.3 million).
