Orioles Re-sign MLB Home Run Leader Mark Trumbo

BALTIMORE (WJZ)-- The Baltimore Orioles have agreed to re-sign free agent outfielder and designated hitter Mark Trumbo to a $37.5 million, three-year contract, according to the Baltimore Sun.

Trumbo, who led the majors with 47 home runs in 2016 in his first year with the Orioles, rejected the club's qualifying offer and had a first-round draft pick attached to him during his first time testing the waters of free agency.

If he had signed elsewhere, the Orioles would have received a draft pick at the end of the first round.
