The Cleveland Guardians are signing free-agent first baseman Rhys Hoskins to a minor league contract, The Athletic reported Sunday.
He will earn a $1.5 million base salary should he make the major league roster, per the report. He still must pass a physical but was in the Guardians clubhouse at spring training in Arizona on Sunday.
Hoskins, who turns 33 next month, spent the past two seasons with the Milwaukee Brewers after six seasons with the Philadelphia Phillies. He missed the 2023 season due to a torn ACL suffered in spring training.
He has a career batting average of .238 with 186 home runs and 530 RBIs.
He played just 90 games for the Brewers last season, sidelined because of a left thumb UCL sprain and bone bruise. He hit .237 with 12 homers and 43 runs driven in. Andrew Vaughn, acquired in a trade with the Chicago White Sox, took over at first base.
