Rockies Designate Esmil Rogers For Assignment

By Mike Axisa | June 9, 2012 at 12:07pm CDT

The Rockies have designated Esmil Rogers for assignment, the club announced (on Twitter). The move clears a roster spot for Jeff Francis, who officially re-joined the team that originally drafted him. He'll start today.

Rogers, 26, pitched to an 8.06 ERA with 10.2 K/9 and 6.3 BB/9 in 25 2/3 relief innings for Colorado this season. He is out of options and could not be sent to the minors without first clearing waivers. Rogers is still young and cheap, plus PitchFX has his fastball regularly in the mid-90s this season, so the Rockies should be able to find a trade partner within the next ten days.

    Juan Francisco for Rogers. The Braves could use his power arm out of the pen plus he’s a starter so he could pitch long relief so we could cut Hernandez or Durbin

      Francisco would be a mega overpay for this guy. Give them Gwinnett’s bat boy, and the Rockies still walk out winners in this deal…

    Rogers is the right handed version of Franklin Morales. Thanks for taking talented arms and failing to cultivate them properly Bob Apodaca, worst pitching coach in the majors.
