Mark Reynolds signs one-year contract with Indians

Free agent Mark Reynolds has signed a one-year, $6 million deal with the Cleveland Indians, MLB.com's Brittany Ghiroli reported Sunday.

CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reported that, like last season with the Baltimore Orioles, Reynolds will play first base for the Indians in 2013.

Earlier on Sunday, Fox Sports' Ken Rosenthal reported that the Indians viewed Reynolds as a backup plan if they were not able to sign free-agent Kevin Youkilis. Youkilis has been offered a reported one-year deal by the New York Yankees, but has yet to sign.
