The Rockies have reached an agreement with free-agent Luis Vizcaino, a right-handed reliever, a baseball source confirmed today.

Pending the results of a physical, Vizcaino will sign a two-year deal with the Rockies. The value of the contract is not known.

Vizcaino, 30, would give the Rockies a strikeout reliever, a piece that was missing from their bullpen last season.

In 77 games with the Yankees in 2007, he struck out 62 batters in 751/3 innings. He recorded a 4.30 ERA and 8-2 record.
