Rockies re-signed LHP Jeff Francis to a one-year, $1.5 million contract.
The deal was reported earlier this month and now becomes official after Francis passed a physical. He can also earn and addition $1.5 million in incentives based on how many innings he pitches. The left-hander posted an ugly 5.58 ERA and 1.48 WHIP in 24 starts for the Rockies in 2012, but he'll compete for a rotation spot next season.
