Rockies Rumors: Herges, Torrealba

Troy E. Renck has the Rockies hot stove buzz, as usual.

• The Rockies are close with reliever Matt Herges, but other teams remain in the mix.  It's known that Herges wants a two-year deal and the Brewers are interested.
• The Rockies are also making progress on a deal with catcher Yorvit Torrealba.  The Mets saw something they didn't like in Torrealba, so he's come back to the Rockies to talk.  Renck says the Rockies had previously offered two years and $7MM with a vesting option for 2010 (seems reasonable).  Now they might be able to get him without guaranteeing that third year.
• Renck says Kaz Matsui may sign with the Cubs or Astros next week.  Matsui has priced himself out of the Rockies' range.
